Re: Gajar ka halwah

Gajar ka halwa is good only with Pakistani carrots. The orange carrots do not give proper taste of gajar ka halwa.

Re: Gajar ka halwah

I can get them here in Tooting, SW London. One of the pakistani shopkeepers imports it from Pakistan during winter. But they are quite costly £4 per kg!!!

Re: Gajar ka halwah

yes sheynie you can ..infact I used skimmed milk today for it … The actual taste of the halwa comes with frying , the more your fry it the better the taste will get and the worst your arms will ache :smack:

Re: Gajar ka halwah

Sheyn, you can use skimmed milk... i use semi-skimmed milk in all of my cooking...

CB! You've been awesome with these recipes during Ramadan! I'm so trying your gajar ka halwa...One question though: is milk powder absolutely necessary? What would happen if i ommited it?

36

Re: Gajar ka halwah

Maroushie :hugz:

Yeah you can omit it , though , what it does is , give the halwa that rich , khoya taste … but if you dont like the khoya taste then dont use the milk powder and instead when you are boiling the carrots in milk earlier on in the process ,add some extra condensed milk …

That should give the halwa the perfect taste , inshallah … :@:

Re: Gajar ka halwah

^ i tried to follow a similar recipe too by adding milk etc and unfortunatly after the whole cooking process, the carrots in the halwa looked too dark and it tasted funny but not burnt.

Re: Gajar ka halwah

sparkle , I know what happened with your halwa , you over cooked it :smack:

when the carrots turn too dark but dont taste burnt , its not the carrots that got burnt its the milk content … and you must have made the halwa on high flame …

when you start frying it , it should be done on low to medium flame and as soon as you can see that the carrots have mixed really well your halwa is ready…

Nice recipe :) I make it little bit different way
