Kuch meetha ho jaaye!


A large chunk of Indian food comprises of desserts. Sweets made in desi ghee and milk, especially. Some people cook sweets during special occasions, some like it occasionally, and there are some who like it almost everyday.

The latter category would be my family. So it was but natural that moi tried something sweet. Dish, I meant. I thought of making gajar ka halwa, or carrot pudding. There was some gaajar left in the fridge since many days (or weeks) anyway ;-) The resourceful me, thought why not try making the halwa.

I did! I did it! And it turned out - I am trying my best to sound modest here - exceptionally well *ahem* So here's my magic receipe.

Warning - DO try this at home.
