Happy New Year, everyone! I want to start the new year with a sweet dish. What can be better than carrot halwa. Although carrots are available all year round but the carrots of winter are very sweet and juicy. As it is well known carrots are a great source of vitamin A and they are good for skin, bones, hair and eyesight. So let us start the new year with a healthy sweet dish.
Ingredients:
Carrots 2 lbs, sugar 1 ½ cup, ghee(purified butter) 1 tbsp, c, cardamom powder 1 tsp, chopped almonds and cashews 1 cup, raisins ¼ cup, dry milk powder 1 cup, 5 pieces of burfi or a 1 ½ cup mawa.
Method:
Wash, peel and grate carrots.
Heat ghee in a pan, add cardamom powder. Add carrots and reduce flame to medium.
Keep stirring the carrots till they dry up, it should not take more than 20-25 minutes.
Add sugar and let the mixture cook on a slow flame.
Add nuts and raisins and let the moisture dry up completely.
Turn off the stove. Add dry milk powder and mix very well.
Grate burfi or mawa and pour on the top. Mix the mawa or burfi after five minutes.
