How to Make Gajar Halwa
Instructions
- Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed pan and add the grated carrots. Sauté them on medium heat until they turn soft and aromatic, stirring occasionally.
- Pour in the milk and let it simmer over low heat. Keep stirring frequently and let the carrots cook until they absorb most of the milk, and the mixture thickens.
- Add sugar and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the halwa thickens and the ghee starts to separate from the mixture.
- Mix in the cardamom powder and saffron strands (if using). Continue to cook until the halwa reaches the desired consistency.
- In a separate pan, roast the chopped nuts in a little ghee until they turn golden.
- Add the roasted nuts to the halwa, leaving some for garnishing.
- Serve the warm Gajar Halwa garnished with the remaining nuts. Enjoy this delightful Indian dessert!
