Gajar ka Halwa – How to make carrot halwa with condensed milk

Carrot Halwa Recipe


Carrot Halwa is my favorite now that mittu is fond of it I am making it often.When I saw red carrots / Delhi carrots in season I quickly grabbed it to make this halwa.Adding condensed milk to carrot halwa gives a rich taste and elevates the taste to a new level 🙂

I made this carrot halwa today with my ultra pressure pan as I am trying to avoid nonstick pans lets see how it goes 🙂

Carrot Halwa Recipe

My Notes:

  • Always saute carrots in ghee till raw smell completely leaves.
  • You can skip milk and make it entirely with condensed milk too.
  • I used homemade condensed milk.
  • I used raw nuts, you can add ghee fried cashews / badams too
  • Using a thick bottomed utensil is a must.
  • Cooking the entire process in low or low medium flame is advisable.
  • You can even add saffron strands and raisins in addition.
  • The halwa keeps well for 2-3 days if refrigerated, in room temperature only for a day.
