Carrot Roulade

March 27 , 2014

The word roulade originates from the French word "rouler" meaning "to roll". Usually roulade is a dish consisting of a slice of meat that is rolled around a filling and cooked. Here I, have prepared a roulade with carrot halwa stuffed with chopped nuts. Here is a recipe for Carrot Roulade.

Ingredients

2 cups grated carrot
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoons ghee
2 tablespoons Malai
1/4 cup Milk
1 teaspoon cardamon powder
2 tablespoons milk powder
2 tablespoons almond powder
1/3 cup chopped nuts (almonds and cashews)
2 sheets of butter paper to roll

Method
In a heavy bottom pan place the grated carrots, ghee, malai and on medium flame fry well for 5 minutes. Then add the milk and cook on slow fire till it evaporates, add sugar and stir till it melts. Then add the milk powder, almond powder and cook till dry and starts leaving the sides of the pan.

Place the carrot mixture on the sheet of butter paper and spread it with a spatula. Spread the chopped nuts and roll by lifting the butter as you are rolling it lightly. When the roll is complete place it a another sheet of paper and tighten both the ends. Keep it in the fridge till it cools and hardens till firm. Cut into slices and serve.
