Gajar (Carrot) Halwa

I like using baby carrots for this recipe because they're already peeled and since they're so small, can be cut in half before grating in the food processor. It's much easier than dealing with big carrots.

Serves: 6
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

1 pkg. baby carrots, cut in half
1 cup golden raisins
1 cup milk
1/2 tsp. saffron, crushed
1 pkg. Gits Kulfi Mix
Sugar to taste
1/4 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. ghee
Chopped almonds

Method:

1. Process carrots in food processor.
2. Over medium high heat, cook carrots, salt and raisins with milk until very little milk remains.
3. Add saffron, Kulfi Mix, stir and taste for sweetness.  Add sugar according to taste.
4. Cook the halwa until sugar dissolves and liquid evaporates.
5. Stir in the ghee, garnish with almonds and serve either hot or chilled.
