Carrot Halwa




As I couldnot go to india for this pongal, I decided to make carrot halwa for this pongal as per my mother-in-law's instructions.Here is the easy way to make.
Carrot Halwa (Ingredients):Carrot(grated) - 3 cups
Milk - 1 cup
Sugar - 1 cup(or if you want it to be less sweet you can reduce the sugar)
Ghee/butter - 1 tablespoon
Cashews/Raisins - 1 tablespoon

Method:Put milk and grated carrot in the pressure cooker and cover the lid and keep it in high mode for one whistle and then in the simmer mode for two minutes. Then open the lid. The carrot will be well cooked. Then cook in simmer mode for another ten minutes without covering the lid.Then add sugar and cook until the sugar get dissolved in the milk.Then add butter,cashwes or raisins. If you want you can fry the cashews separately in ghee and add it.
