So #DessertOfTheDay is "GajarKaHalwa", it is one of the Indian sweets which is highly recommended and loved by everyone specially during winter season.
Made in a pot with milk, ghee, sugar and some nuts to finish the delicious dessert. Indian carrots are best for this as they are dark red in color and naturally sweet, making it just mouthwatering and tempting..
The luscious red color in the attached picture is all because of dark red indian carrots without any inorganic food coloring. Thus making it unique and most loved..
Here's an easiest recipe for it -
Ingredients -
1 KG Grated Carrots | 1 Cup Amul Ghee | 1 Tsp Cardamom Powder | 1 Cup Almonds/Pistachios | Saffron Threads | 1 Ltr Full Cream Milk | 1 Cup Sugar OR as per your taste buds | 500GM Mawa/Khoya
Instructions - Wash the carrots, peel and grate it using Box Grater.
