Carrot halwa or gajar halwa is an Indian traditional sweet dish. It is cooked in ghee, milk and sugar and garnished with some dry fruits.
Here I'm sharing Carrot halwa recipe with step by step clear process and with pictures. It is my grandma's recipe and I love carrot halwa making in this way
Here I used grated carrots, ghee, milk and sugar to make carrot halwa without any condensed milk or khoya. Three steps to make carrot halwa. First is to grate the carrot and saute it in ghee nicely. The second step is to boil the full-fat milk and reduce it to half and the third step is to put carrot (cooked in ghee) in milk and cook on low flame and when the carrot is cooked nicely in milk add sugar and cook the halwa nicely and garnish it with some dry fruits.
