Carrot Halwa
**Ingredients: **
-
Milk - 8 cups
-
Sugar - 4 cups
-
Grated carrot - 4 cups
-
Raisins - 6
-
Cashews - 6
-
Cardamom powder - 1/4 tsp
-
Ghee - 7 tbsp
Method:
Heat the milk in a hard bottomed pan adding sugar and cardamom powder. Allow to condense to nearly 1/3rd its volume (or until lots of cream/edu forms on top and the mixture turns to a light cream/brown color). Add the grated carrot and allow the mixture on a low heat setting for a while.
In another pan, heat ghee and fry the raisins and cashews. Add this to the carrot milk mixture and allow to cook until the ghee comes out on top/sides.
