*6 medium Carrots, scrapped and grated
*6 cups Milk,
*3/4th cup Sugar
*6 tablespoons of Almonds, ground
*1/2 tablspoond Cardamom powder
*3 tablespoons Pistachio nuts, coarsely crushed
*3 tablespoons Ghee, (optional )

Method:

Put the grated carrots, milk into a deep, large, heavy saucepan. Bring it to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to moderate and cook, stirring constantly until the mixture has reduced to about half its original volume and is thick enough to coat a spoon heavily.

Stir in the sugar and cook for about 10 to 15 minutes. Reduce heat to low and add the almonds and the ghee and stir for a few minutes more

The "halwa "is done when the mixture is thick enough to draw from the sides and bottom of the pan in a solid mass.

TIP:  :  Soak almonds in warm water for a minute, if you need to peel  them quickly
