Ingredients (Serves 4)

Fresh carrots – 500 grams (sweet, red seasonal variety preferred)
Ghee – ½ cup (pure desi ghee enhances flavor)
Mawa (khoya) – 200 grams
Full cream milk – ½ cup
Sugar – 1 cup (adjust to taste)
Cardamom powder – 1 teaspoon
Chopped dry fruits – Almonds, cashews, pistachios (for garnish)

Step-by-Step Recipe

Step 1: Pressure Cook the Carrots

Wash and peel the carrots, then chop them into large chunks.
Add 1 cup of water to a pressure cooker and place the carrot pieces inside.
Pressure cook for 4–5 whistles, then turn off the heat.
Let the steam release naturally, then mash the carrots using a ladle or blender to make a coarse purée.

Step 2: Sauté the Carrots in Ghee

In a heavy-bottomed pan or kadhai, heat the ghee.
Add the mashed carrots and sauté on medium heat for 5–7 minutes until the mixture turns slightly golden and aromatic.
Pour in the milk, mix well, and let it simmer on low flame until it thickens.

Step 3: Add Mawa and Sugar

Once the mixture thickens, stir in cardamom powder and mawa.
Cook for another 2–3 minutes, mixing well so the mawa melts and blends in.
Add sugar, and keep stirring until the halwa reaches your desired consistency.

Step 4: Garnish and Serve

Turn off the flame and garnish with chopped dry fruits.
Serve hot and enjoy a bowl of pure winter comfort — no grating, no fuss!

This shortcut halwa recipe doesn’t compromise on taste and is perfect for last-minute dessert cravings or when guests arrive unexpectedly. The creamy texture and rich aroma will rival any sweet shop preparation.
