Ingredients




5 Carrot , grate it
Milk
Sugar
Dry grapes and cashew nuts (can add pista and 4 spoons Ghee

Preparation

1 Heat 4-5 table spoons of ghee in a pan and when it is hot enough, add dry grapes and cashew nuts. 2 Fry it for a couple of minutes(fry till the dry grape bulges) and then add grated carrot. 3 Add milk just to cover the carrot. Not so much that the carrot becomes completely immersed. 4 Carrot boils in the milk. Stir it in between and allow it to boil till the milk drains completely. 5 This is the time to add sugar. Do not add it before, as it prevents carrot from boiling. I added around 1.5 cups of sugar. Add it depending on your taste. As the sugar melts you can notice a thin brownish syrup. 6 Stir it for a couple of minutes and it is ready. 7 It can be served hot or cold(after refrigeration) as dessert. I love the either way.
