or Gajar Ka Halva. Bob always brings wonderful foods to our food parties. He brought this dish to our New Year's Day Good Luck - Pot Luck . It was absolutely yummy! He promised me the recipe, and here it is.I checked other Carrot Halva and Gajar Ka Halva recipes and this was different. I will use Effortless Clarified Butter (Aka Ghee) in the Oven to make my ghee. Ingredients:
6 medium carrots |
3 cups milk |
8 whole cardamom pods |
6 tablespoons ghee |
6 tablespoons sugar (granulated) |
2 tablespoons sultanas (golden raisins) |
1 tablespoon pistachios (shelled, unsalted, and slightly crushed) |
1/2 pint heavy whipping cream |
Directions:
1. Peal and grate carrots.
2. Put carrots, milk, and cardamom pods in a heavy pot and bring to a boil.
3. Lower heat to medium and slowly cook and stir until no liquid is left. (about 45 minutes to 1 hour, you may need to adjust heat).
4. Heat ghee in pan over medium heat.
5. When this is hot, put in carrot mixture.
6. Stir and fry until carrots no longer have a wet, milky look. (they will be a rich reddish brown about 10-15 minutes).
7. Add the sugar, sultanas, and pistachios.
8. Stir and fry another 2 minutes.
9. Serve with whipped cream warm, or at room temperature.
