Milk -- 1 1/2 liters (full fat)
Cadamom powder -- 1/4 teaspoon
Sugar -- 1/2 cup (or according to taste)
Ghee -- 3-4 tablespoons.

Wash peel and grate carrot. Fry it in 2-3 tablespoons of ghee until it is wilted. Add 1/2 liter milk to it and cook it covered on low flame.

Heat the rest of the milk and reduce it to 1/4 liter.

Once the carrot is done, add sugar, reduced milk, cardamom powder and cook it until the halwa becomes thick, keep stirring the mixture all the while. Once it becomes thick remove from flame.
