We, Indians makes excellent desserts with carrots, one among those delectable dessert is Burfi. Actually making halwa out of the carrots is a well known Indian dessert around the world, but burfi can be made with grated carrots is equally a super delicious dessert to serve after a meal or as a sweet for a festival or else for a celebration. Since am running this week's theme with Valentine's day dishes/Holi Special as theme, i couldnt stop myself dishing out some carrot burfi which was in my list since a while. Obviously i planned everything to dish out this incredible burfi with carrots few days back at home.
Usually i make carrot halwa with milk, sugar etc, but my version of carrot burfi calls for mawa aka khoya, the popular milk solids which is used quite often for making many delicious Indian sweets. Addition of khoya makes this burfi more delicious, flavorful and very dangerously addictive to enjoy without any fuss. Cooking grated carrots in milk, sugar may consumes more time, but trust me if you replace the milk and sugar with condensed milk, the cooking process takes less time. Give a try to this fabulous burfi to please your loved one.
4cups Grated carrots
1/2cup Sweetened condensed milk
1/4cup Heavy cream
1/2cup Khoya/Mawa
1tsp Cardamom powder
3tbsp Ghee
Chopped nuts
Heat ghee in a heave bottomed pan, add the grated carrots and sauté until they turns soft.
Meanwhile, in an another pan, take the khoya, heavy cream and sweetened condensed milk, cook in simmer until the khoya gets dissolves.
Add the sauteed carrots to the khoya-sweetened condensed milk mixture and cook in medium flame until the mixture gets thickens.
Add the cardamom powder, chopped nuts, cook until the mixture comes out from the bottom of the vessel.
Transfer this carrot burfi to a greased plate or greased small ramekin/tart moulds, let it cool completely.
Slice the burfi or if using small moulds, remove the burfis from the moulds.
Enjoy.
