Gajar Halwa, also known as carrot halwa, is a traditional Indian dessert made primarily from fresh, grated carrots, milk, sugar, and ghee. Originating in North India, it has become popular across the country and even internationally. Its rich flavor, aromatic spices, and vibrant color make it a favorite during festivals, celebrations, and special occasions.
The preparation begins with fresh carrots, which are carefully grated to ensure even cooking. Next, the carrots are slowly cooked in milk, allowing them to absorb the creamy texture and develop a naturally sweet flavor. Then, sugar and ghee are added to enhance the richness and provide a silky smooth consistency. Some variations include cardamom, saffron, or nuts such as almonds and cashews, which not only add flavor but also provide a pleasant crunch.
In modern kitchens, many people also experiment with Gajar Halwa by adding condensed milk, khoya, or evaporated milk to speed up the cooking process and enrich the taste. Some even garnish it with silver leaf (varak) to enhance its presentation for festive occasions.
