Ingredients

1. Pink Carrots – Grated - 4 cups
2. Khava – 1 ½ cup
3. Nutmeg – Grated – a pinch
4. Ghee – 4 tsp
5. Cardamom powder – ½ tsp
6. Sugar – 1 ½ to 2 cups ( depends on how sweet you may want it )
7. Roasted Dry fruits/nuts – ( raisins/cashew/badam)

Procedure

1. In a thick bottomed kadai, add 2 tsp of ghee and the grated carrots. Stir fry for 3-4 min on medium flame.
2. Add the remaining ingredients Khova , nutmeg, cardamom powder , sugar .
3. keep stirring the mixture constantly till you begin to see that it comes together. ( this needs constant stirring else the carrots wont be cooked uniformly and the base of the kadai may get burnt)
4. The mixture caramelizes and the halwa tends to solidify a little. – this would probably take about 6-7 minutes on medium flame.
5. add the remaining 2 tsp of ghee and roasted dryfruits/nuts and serve
