This is a North Indian dessert made out of grated carrots cooked in lots of ghee, nuts, and solidified milk.
Ingredients:
1 kg carrot, grated thickly
1 cup khoya, solidified milk
100 g sugar
200 g ghee
50 g raisins
100 g cashew nuts, split
100 g pistachios, chopped
5 cardamom pods
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
Directions:
1. Heat ghee and lightly fry the nuts and the raisins in it. Remove and keep aside.
2. Add the carrots in the remaining ghee and stir till the carrots smell fragrant.
3. Now add the sugar and let it melt.
4. Cook this on low flame till all the liquid evaporates and the carrots are well cooked.
5. Add powdered cardamoms and cinamon.
6. Finish off with the nuts, raisins and crumbled khoya.
7. This is best eaten hot, but tastes equally good in room temperature.
