4Carrot Halwa With Condensed Milk
5Notes
gajar ka halwa with milkmaid | carrot halwa recipe with condensed milk with step by step photo and video recipe. basically a cheat or instant version of carrot halwa prepared and cooked with condensed milk or sweetened evaporated milk. traditionally, grated carrots are boiled and cooked in milk till it turns to be thick. however, in this recipe, grated carrots are cooked in milkmaid which is already thick to fasten the complete process.
perhaps carrot halwa recipe is my first dessert recipe after i started to cook for my own. i still remember, i had prepared this recipe for my brother for raksha bandhan. while, my brother did not like it, but i loved, perhaps because i had prepared it. gajar ka halwa is very special for my brother and he likes the traditional way of carrot halwa. but i had chosen the milkmaid option as it was easy and quick. in other words, you would be reducing almost 30 to 40 minutes in boiling the milk and reducing it to half.
besides, some important tips and variations for perfect gajar ka halwa recipe. firstly, i have not added extra sugar in this recipe. however if you desire for some more sweetness you are more than welcome to add as per your preference. secondly, if you are in hurry, then you can even pressure cook the grated carrot and condensed milk for a whistle. after one whistle, open the lid and cook on high flame stirring continuously until all the milk evaporates. lastly, carrot halwa is open ended for adding dry fruits. you can add any available dry fruits to this recipe.
