From the time made the mawa red carrot cake,
I’m obsessed with red carrots.
No color added,the carrot shed it’s lovely color.
I have made carrot halwa with semolina before
(previously posted ) but this one is different in
taste and texture!
It’s my own innovation,so do try and post in
your valued comments!
INGREDIENTS
1 cup grated carrot
1 cup semolina/rawa
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup ghee
Few cashewnuts and raisins
A pinch of salt
1/2 tsp cardamon powder
1/4 cup milk
METHOD
First add the grated carrots,and cook for a
minute ,mix well and then add ghee ( 1-2 tblsp)
and sauté till raw smell is gone . Add the
cashewnuts and raisins with another tblsp.of
ghee and cook furthermore for another five
minutes.
Before adding rawa , have two cups hot water ready.
Add the rawa now, to the carrot mixture ,and
mix well ,and add hot water, cardamon powder
salt . Cover and slow cook for 5 minutes, till you
see the rawa swelled up. Add some ghee.
Finally add sugar and keep mixing till sugar
dissolves.Add milk.
Keep mixing till it forms a lump.Add remaining
ghee .
You can serve in dessert bowls,or flatten it on
a greased plate .Apply ghee on the top .
Cut slices and serve.
Note: Ghee is no limit for kesari, so it’s your choice.
Nuts can be fried in ghee and added separately too.
