CB can you post the recipe for your gajar ka halwa please?

Re: Meal of the Week 3rd - 9th March

Sure Tiger ..

Gajar Halwa :

finely shredded carrots - 6-8 cups

Take a large pot and heat it well .. chuck the shredded carrots in there and keep it on high flame .. stir stir stir ... until all the water from the carrots has dried and carrots start sticking to the pan ... now add in about one and a half cup whole milk .. cover the pan and let it cook on medium heat ... stir every few minutes ..

When the milk dries out , add in about half cup oil , medium heat and start bhooning it ... add in crushed cardamom , about 5-6 of them ..
The longer you bhoon , the better the taste ... because of the milk the carrots will have softened by now , you just need to make sure they get completely fried that will enhance the taste .. I bhoon for about 30 minutes usually ( first 15 minutes on high heat and last 15 on low/medium heat )

Finally when you see the mixture has released oil , add in the nuts , as many as you like .. give it a good stir , add in sugar to taste .. it will start looking watery as sugar melts ... keep bhooning for a few more minutes and finally add in about 8-10 tablespoons of Nido milk little my little .. lower the heat .. mix it all and after about 5 mintues of dum .. its ready to serve ...

Thanks I'll give it a try and report back. What's Nido milk, and why do you use this instead of normal milk?

Re: Meal of the Week 3rd - 9th March

Tiger, its milk powder ... since we dont get khoya here .. adding powder milk at the end gives it that thickness and a lovely khoya taste as well ...

How u make masla chips

I forgot to share my pics I l share it tomorrow :slight_smile:

Re: Meal of the Week 3rd - 9th March

Masala chips are easy ... fry french fries and keep aside .. Use the frozen packet walay , I didnt have them at home so I cut up the potatoes but they become limp .. but for masala chips best fries to use are the frozen ones ...

then in a pot heat one tablespoon oil and add in finely chopped onion just two tablespoons, when it browns add in half tsp garlic ... then salt to taste ..
throw in 3 chopped green chillies .. and some chat masala .. and one cup of tomato paste ( crush tomatoes in a blender ) .. cook it on low heat , until tomatoes get reduced to a very thick paste ... add in handful of fresh corriander .. after a few minutes ... take it off the flame and let it cool .. finally add in the french fries and cook this on very high heat for just30 seconds ... done !

Re: Meal of the Week 3rd - 9th March

Oh and you can do variations as well .. like sometimes I just use herbs and garlic ... no tomatoes...
