Panchamrut Ghee | 3 – 5 tblsps |
cardamom/elachi powder | A pinch |

Method:
- Take a heavy bottomed pan(I used my pot shaped pressure cooker) and fry the grated carrots with a tablespoon of ghee till it turns pale in colour.(say 2-3 minutes)Add the milk and bring to boil,cook in medium flame.
- Add the milk and bring to boil,cook in medium flame.
- Cook till all the milk evaporates and the carrot gets cooked .
- When the mixture is almost dry,add the sugar and keep on stirring.(7-10 minutes)
- When the mixture starts thickening,add PANCHAMRUT GHEE,elachi,cashews and pistachios fried in ghee.Keep stirring for more 3-4 minutes.
Notes
- Only the grating part is a tiring job,otherwise this is very easy to make. So you can try using a food processor for this grating job.
- You can add less ghee than mentioned.
- You can follow the same method and make beetroot halwa. Just replace carrot with beetroot !
