Gajar ka halwa(Carrot pudding)-The sweetest affair at any day!!
Today is last day of the year 2023!

So lets end this year with sweet and delicious **Gajar ka halwa**. 

Halwa is very popular in India. In every festival or occasion Halwa will be a must dish. Like Lentil halwa(moong dal halwa) wheat flour halwa(ata halwa), semolina halwa(suji halwa), bottle gourd halwa(loky halwa) etc. I am a big Halwa lover😍.

Gajar ka halwa is a very popular North Indian dessert and loved by all across the **Globe** .May the making process of Gajar ka Halwa is different in many states but once you taste this you will fall in love at the first bite.

*And I guarantee you after one bowl you will ask for one more😍*.

Gajar ka halwa can also be made in Pressure cooker but genuinely speaking I dont like that. My mother used to make in Open wide kadhai. So I prefer this method only. So do try to make this process and it will win your heart! ❤

Lets start to Make Gajar ka halwa-
****
**So for this we need**

carrot- 1kg
Milk-1½ kg
Sugar-250gm
Ghee(clarified butter)-100 to 150gm
Nuts-½cup
Cardamon powder-⅓tspn for the taste.

****
**METHOD**

1.take fresh red carrot which are juicy. I have used traditionally red carrot because it will give authentic color to the halwa.

In some country red carrots are unavailable then you can take orange coloured carrots also.
