Easy Carrot Halwa (Gajjar Ka Halwa)

                This is really a wonderful sweet dish specially for those who luv carrots..I made this when my husbands friends came around..
i don't make it in the traditional way..since it takes time..i use a pressure cooker..
So this recipe is for those lazy ones out there like me.....

Ingredients 

1.Carrot-3 cups(grated)(mostly 6 carrots needed)

2.Sugar-3/4 cup(depending on the sweetness of carrot, do reduce)

3.Milk-1n1/2 cup

4.Ghee-3 tbsp
5-Cashew Nuts+Pistas+Almonds(Handful)(can miss any if u don't have..only cashew nuts would work)
(cut these into small pieces-more easy to eat..)
6. Cardomom(elakka) powder-1/2 tsp

In a pressure cooker..

~Take 1 tbsp ghee & roast nuts(almonds/pistas) & keep aside.
~Then add 1 tbsp ghee & roast the grated carrots for 1 min.
~Add milk & sugar.
~Close the pressure cooker & wait till 1 whistle.
~Off the flame & open suddenly by pouring water on top.
~Then cook till it becomes paste(halwa style)
~Add all the roasted nuts & rest ghee & cardomom powder..

Gajar ka halwa is ready..i hope u guys will definitely try it..
serves 8 i think..
