Carrot Halwa or Gajar Ka Halwa is a very easy to make dessert. Gajar is a juicy variety of carrots which will be a bit red in colour and are much juicy than carrots and suits better to make carrot halwa than carrots. Khowa also called Mava is added to this dessert to increase its taste even more. I added milkmaid also which gives a creamy texture and nice aroma to the dessert.
The only tiresome part is grating carrots.
But the yummy and mesmerizing taste of the dessert makes you wipe off the tiresome grating process of carrots.
