Categories     Dessert

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tbsp ghee (divided (1 tbsp and 1 tbsp))
4 cups organic carrots (peeled & shredded)
1 1/2 cups organic whole milk
1/2 tsp cardamom powder
5 tbsp sugar
1/2 cup cashews unsalted (chopped)
1 tbsp pistachios (chopped)

Steps:

  • Peel the carrots. Shred the carrots using the smaller side of the shredder. You can do it by hand or use a food processor.
  • Heat a wok on medium heat, once hot, add 1 tbsp of ghee.
  • Add the carrots and saute for about 8 minutes until the color of the carrots changes.
  • Keep stirring to avoid burning. This is a labor of love.
  • Add milk to the carrots. Cook the carrots and milk down for 6-7 minutes until all the milk is absorbed by the carrots.
  • Keep stirring to avoid sticking and burning.
  • Once all the milk is absorbed, this is what you should have.
  • Add the sugar.
  • Immediately after, add 1 more tbsp of ghee.
  • Keep stirring. until all the water is absorbed which is left behind by the sugar. This process will take about 5-6 minutes.
  • Once done, add cardamom powder. Stir.
  • Add chopped cashews. You can also add almonds, pistachios, and raisins, however I just stick with cashews.
  • Mix well.
  • Dry roast the Gajar ka Halwa for a couple more minutes so the color of the carrots deepens slightly.
  • Enjoy with a cup of my Kadak Masala Chai.

GAJAR HALWA (CARROT AND CARDAMOM PUDDING)



Gajar Halwa (Carrot and Cardamom Pudding) image

The recipe for this Indian dessert comes from the North Carolina chef Cheetie Kumar, and it instantly transports her to her mother's kitchen around Diwali, the air rich with the aroma of fragrant carrots, caramelized milk and cardamom. The carrots are cooked down to be incredibly tender, but they still maintain some texture; the milk becomes jammy. If eaten warm, it's like a really decadent warm cereal or oatmeal; if served cold, it's like rice pudding, cool and sweet. The crunch of the toasted nuts make it the perfect meal-ender or tea time snack. If your carrots are bland, increase the sugar accordingly; the sweetness of the carrots makes a huge difference in the finished pudding. Some people prefer a looser halwa, but Ms. Kumar loves the caramelized notes that emerge when the pudding is cooked a little longer.

Categories     custards and puddings, dessert

Time 1h

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons ghee or clarified butter
8 to 10 large peeled and shredded carrots (about 4 cups/455 grams), prepared with a food processor into long strands or grated on the large holes on a box grater
3 cups/720 milliliters good-quality whole milk
1/2 teaspoon green cardamom seeds, removed from several pods or purchased already shucked, crushed lightly in mortar and pestle
1/4 cup/50 grams granulated sugar, plus more to taste
1/4 cup/30 grams chopped toasted pistachios, almonds or a mixture

Steps:

  • In a wide, heavy-bottomed skillet (don't use nonstick) over medium heat, melt ghee, then add carrots. Stir until carrots are well coated with ghee. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until carrots are somewhat dry and caramelized, about 20 to 25 minutes, stirring often so they don't scorch.
  • Once the carrots are nice and dried out, stir in the milk and cardamom and simmer, stirring every few minutes, until the milk has reduced and is almost fully absorbed, about 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Sprinkle in the sugar, mix well to combine, and cook 5 to 8 more minutes until the mixture is almost dry and jammy. Serve warm or cold with toasted nuts sprinkled over the top.
