In the same ghee, add grated carrot and sauté well for 5 minutes or until it changes color slightly.

Now pour in 3 cup milk and give a good stir.

Boil for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Continue to boil until the carrots are cooked well and the milk reduces.

Once the milk thickens completely, add ¾ cup sugar.

Mix well and cook until the sugar dissolves and thickens.

Cook until the halwa thickens and ghee releases from the sides.

Now turn off the flame and add ½ cup khoya and ¼ tsp cardamom powder along with the fried nuts.

Mix well making sure everything is well combined.

Finally, enjoy gajar ka halwa or carrot halwa chilled or warm.
