Gajar halwa is one of India's favorite desserts. I just made it with a twist. Here is my take on this famous and delicious dessert. My mother makes gajar halwa with mava(khava) to get the rich flavor. So here I added heavy whipping cream to get that rich creamy taste.
Ingredients
Ingredients

Sugar 1/2 cup (increase it if you like sweeter side)
Heavy whipping cream 1/2 cup
Milk 1/4 cup
Cardamom powder 1 tsp
Dry Fruits 1-2 tbsp finely chopped
Raisins 1-2 tbsp
Recipe
1. In a pan heat ghee and add grated carrots and beet. Cook them for about 4-5 minutes.
2. Now add heavy whipping cream and milk. While it starts simmering keep on stirring. Cook on medium flame until cream and milk start to reduce slowly.
3. When milk has reduced little bit add sugar and cardamom powder and let it simmer for some more time. Keep on stirring while halwa is cooking.
4. At the end add dry fruits and raisins.
5. Serve halwa hot if you like or let it cool down and then serve.

You can serve this halwa by adding some milk. I like to have my halwa that way.
