Ingredients

  • Gajar- 1 kg
  • Ghee- 1 cup
  • Milk- 500 ml
  • Sugar- 1 and half cup
  • Mava/khoya- 1 cup or as per preferences
  • Dryfruits- as per choice
  • Elaichi powder- 1 tbsp

Instructions

  • Wash Carrots and grate them thick. Heat a pan and add grated carrots. Cook them raw till their moisture is completely reduced. Now, add ghee and saute for another 5 mins. Add milk and cook until it get absorbed. Once it becomes dry, add sugar and elaichi powder. Cook until sugar is dissolved. Now add mava and dryfruits. Mix and saute it for only a minute. Switch off the flame and eat it hot or refrigerate it once it cools down, if you like to have it cold.

Notes/Tips

1. Saute raw carrots and reduce the moisture from carrots before adding ghee, the sweets and colour of carrots will remain intact by this. 2. After adding milk, let it dry completely. So it doesn't get mushy. 3. I have only used red part of carrots, i don't grate inside white part of it.
