Gajar Halwa With Khoya/Mawa#Foodieextravaganza

Gajar Halwa is a carrot based mouth watering popular dessert rich in taste. Gajar Halwa is traditionally eaten during all the festivals in India and made especially in winter when red carrots are widely available.
This is my hubby and son-in-law's favorite. I make this halwa at least thrice in winter.

1 Cup = 200 Ml Cup
Ingredients

1¼ Kg Red Carrot
250 Ml Milk
1 Cup Granulated Sugar
2 Heaped Tablespoons Milk Powder
2 Tablespoons Desi Ghee
300 Grams Homemade Khoya/Mawa
¼ Cup Chopped Cashew nuts
¼ Cup Raisins
1 Teaspoon Cardamom powder

Method
Wash and clean the carrots, peel it, and then grate into the bowl using the thin grater.
In a thick bottom kadai add the carrot and ghee, cover and cook on medium low flame for 10 to 15 minutes stirring in between till the carrot is cooked and has a shine. 
Add the milk and cook without the lid till the moisture evaporated . Keep stirring in between after every 3 -4 minutes.
Cook opened till the milk nearly evaporates.
Add the sugar 
and cook till sugar melts and moisture evaporates.
Now add the mawa, milk powder and cook stirring for about 3 -5 minutes. Then add the chopped cashews and raisins cook for 5 minutes, stirring again after every 3 -4 minutes. Add cardamom powder and give it a good mix.
                             
Served garnished with chopped cashew nuts, pistachio, raisins. Enjoy!!
Gajar Halwa is so yummy and delicious.
