Steps

1 hour

1

Heat a deep thick bottom kadai. In it add ghee. When the ghee heats up add to it the illaichi
2

When illaichi splutters to it add grated carrots and stir it nice for 5 minutes.
3

Then after stirring keep the kadai covered for 5 more minutes. Let the carrot cook in its own juice.
4

Then open the steel cover and to it add a bowl of homemade malai and stir again nicely for 2 minutes so the malai mix with the carrots.
5

After the malai has mixed add a bowl of milk and stir again for 2 to 3 minutes.
6

Keep it covered again. The milk, malai and grated carrots will cook together for another 7 to 8 minutes.
7

Then open the cover and check the status of the halwa and add the sugar and mix again. The sugar will dissolve.
8

Allow it to cook uncovered till the milk and juices evapourate. When you stir it you will feel the halwa is cooked properly.

Switch off the gas. Serve the halwa with chopped nuts and raisins.

My love for cooking has developed rather late. Functional cooking was comfortable but slowly after my children have grown up and started becoming foodies and my hubby too and especially during this lockdown have started cooking and enjoying the process too.
