Carrot Halwa (Dessert)

Ingredients

2 cups of shredded carrot
2 cups of milk
3 tbsp unsalted butter / ghee
1/4 cup of sugar
1/4 tsp of cardamom powder
10 cashew nuts
5 almonds
Preferably a non stick pan

Directions

1. Fry the cashew nuts and almonds in little butter / ghee for 2 mins and keep them aside.
2. Now add butter and shredded carrot into the pan. Stir it well and let it cook in a medium flame.
3. Boil or Microwave milk till it reduces its quantity.
4. Once you notice the carrot changing its color to little brown, then add the boiled milk into it and stir constantly for 1 min.
5. Keep the flame on medium and let it cook for sometime.
6. After sometime the carrot will absorb all the milk and it will change into dry consistency. And this is the time to add sugar and mix it well.
7. Since the sugar leaves some water, cook it for couple of minutes till you see the water is evaporated.
8. Now its time to add cardamom powder and mix it well
9. Finally garnish it with cashew nuts and almonds.
