Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups shredded carrots
  • 2 cups milk
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter or ghee
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cardamom powder
  • 6 cashew roasted and broken for garnishing

Instructions
 

  • Roast the cashew nuts and set aside for the garnish.
  • Boil the milk on medium-high heat in a non-stick pan until it is reduced to about to 1 cup. Stir often to ensure the milk does not burn in the bottom of the pan. Set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a frying pan on medium heat. Add the shredded carrots and stir-fry for about seven to eight minutes. Carrots should be tender and slightly changed in color.
  • Add the milk and cook until the milk dries. This will take about eight to ten minutes.
  • Next add the sugar, and cardamom powder and stir-fry for another three to four minutes until the halwa starts to leave the side of frying pan.
  • Garnish with cashew nuts.

Notes

Tips:
Gajar Halwa can be refrigerated for up to one week and kept in the freezer for up to two months.
When ready to serve just warm.
Suggestion:
Cook the halwa a little more and pour on a greased plate.
Spread the halwa until it is flat and 3/4 inch thick.
After the halwa cools, cut in squares.
Garnish with cashew nuts or sliced almonds.

    Hello Aunty

    I tried making this dish for 8 serves . As your dish suggest for 4 serves, I just doubled up the ingredients as shown in your recipe. Followed all the other instructions but it’s almost half an hour but the milk has not dried up at all. Can u tell me what went wrong?

    1. Manjula Jain

      Beena I just don’t understand

    2. Vahini Manohar

      I think you have taken a milk at the end of the process or after milk you have given a least time to cook. I Gajar Ka halwa is regularly cooked desert.

    I love your video. Thank you for explaining every step clearly.

  7. Rina

    Hi, I love this dish and would love to make it at home. Your recipe looks wonderful, but I wonder if it’s possible to use canned evaporated milk or even sweetened condensed milk instead of reducing the 2 cups of milk? Thanks so much.

    1. Manjula Jain

      Rina,
      It will not be the same

  8. Deematti seema Imam Mankasingh

    1. Manjula Jain

      Pia that will work

  13. Nmissi

    Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. Carrot halwa is my absolute favorite dessert, but the nearest place that makes a good one is almost an hour away from my house. Tonight I used your recipe, and just made carrot halwa as good as (or better than) I’ve ever had in a restaurant. Again, thank you for the recipe and posting the videos- it’s so helpful to see the recipe done step by step, it makes a world of difference.

  14. Darshita

    This is a mouth watering sweet.
    My grand father liked it to much.

  15. Rashmi

    The video makes it look simple. Perfect for me who’s going to make an Indian sweet dish for the very first time! It looks yummy! 🙂 Thank you so much! 🙂

  17. nandini

    auntie , thanks to u . I made this dish for my dad’s birthday. You have magic in ur hands. 🙂

  18. ekta

    It would be great if you mention in every step what flame it should be U

    1. neha singh

      gajar ka halwa maine bnaya jo ki cook hone k bad black ho gya ..aisa q…. iska colour change wapas red kaise hoga… plz rply soon

      1. Manjula Jain

        Neha, I have never experienced that, sorry I don’t have any answer for that.

      2. Lakshmi

        Did you add piping hot milk to the carrots while it was cooking?
        That could be the reason. If the milk it too hot when you add it to gajar, it will curdle and the milk proteins will burn as you cook further. That’s what make your gajar halwa turn black! Milk should be at room temperature or just lukewarm when you add to carrots while cooking.

  19. Subash

    Awesome manjula…..bahat achha laga….

  20. Gastronomer

    Amazing! Thank you for sharing your recipe.

  21. Lawrence

    Thank you for sharing your knowledge Manjula. I have a question regarding this carrot halwa. When I make it the milk solids turn into white particles in the halwa. This does not look so nice. Is this normal? Is there anything I can do to prevent it. In your photo I don’t see any white particles and your carrots look so bright and glossy.

  22. Kajol

    Thank u so much mrs. Manjula ji…..I really like all ur recipes ..gajar ka halwa recipe was v v nice ..thnx so much for sharing with us all..waiting for more n more recipes ..

  23. Michael

    How do you make Punjabi Mulee ka roti ( Radish inside the roti) I forget… because also my next door Punjabi aunty use to make this Mulee ka roti.. I hope to get your advises.

    Plus how to make Punjabi style Taarka with all different beans..? I forgot all the beans name.?

  24. Michael

    Dearest Auntie,

    I miss India so much because I am based in Taiwan now.

    Thanks a lot for your teaching us how to cook Gajar ka Halwa.
    I love this so much and I miss the days when I was in India eating Gajar ka Halwa made by my next door auntie who is Punjabi makes good Halwa and Paaratha to go alongwith.

    Thanks for this video I will try tomorrow to cook

  25. Triveni

    dear Manjula
    gajar ka halwa superb and when i observe the picture recipe its mouth wandering excellent reccipe i tried it. i recieved nice complements from my husband. your recipe’s instructions are very simple those are nice to follow
    once again thanks alottttttttttttttttttttt

  26. Guest

    Turned out perfectly delicious!

  27. Alanis

    Hi Aunty,

    Thanks so much for sharing this recipe and video! Your instructions are always so easy to follow and your measurements are so accurate. I’ve been wanting to learn how to make gajar ka halwa for years now, but have been intimidated from trying it. Your method is traditional, yet so easy to follow! I can’t believe that on my first try, it actually looked like the one you made and it tastes delicious, too! I added a few extra spoons of sugar, but later realized that your amount is probably perfect for this rich dessert. I also put a whole cardomom, but it did not incorporate the flavor into the dish this way. Next time, I’ll add the cardomom to the milk (I don’t know how to powder cardamom to the fine texture I like and am not a big fan of cardamom).

  28. Shammin

    My hubby and I recently had carrot halwa from a restaurant and we loved it. He told me to learn to make it and i’m very eager to try out new recipes as i love to cook! I got the chance to make it today but just reduced quantities. I didn’t have cardamon powder so sprinkled some cinnamon and I didn’t have nuts either. It was very tasty and so easy to make aunty ji! I will add a bit more sugar next time though. I will make it again over the weekend as it will be Eid.
    Thank you for a delicious and simple recipe!

  29. shobha

    Hi manjula aunty,

  31. mudra jha

    hi manjula auntie namsate iwant to asku wbout this gajar ka halwa agar hum milk microwave mai alag kerte hai aur gajar alag kerte hai to carrot kachhe nahi rehte na kuki normally hum bhaut sare milk mai gajar ka halwa banate hai ghante tak tab wo soft hote hai muje yeh idea bhaut acha laga lkein just want to know kuki mai ab aise hi bannanewali hu halwa pls muje reply dena thanks

  32. prabha

    wow, its simply superb.

  33. Sania

    Woww!! luv gajar ka halwa alot..!. YummMmy….:p
    i made it many a times but the problem which exist when i make it,the milk which i put in it,doesnt soaks the carrot… so plz can u help me out of this problem….
    soon reply.m waiting….!

    1. Shammin

      Hi Sania, since you got no reply and i might know what the problem was, let me see if i can help. The heat should be on medium and the pan should be uncovered. If you find the milk dries too quickly, just lower the heat so you have more control over it. The heat shouldn’t be too low or it will take ages to dry up. Hope this helps 🙂

  34. mousumi pradhan

    good

  35. Sona Arya

    Aunty,

    Your recipes are wonderful and so simple! I had no idea about cooking when I got married. I learnt so much for you. My grandmother and you have such similar cooking styles.

    Thanks a lot for another delicious recipe!

  36. Bhawna

    dear aunty
    I love you so much for your simple recipes. Like this gajar ka halwa. Most of the recipes on the internet will ask to get milkmaid or khoya or what not But your recipe is so simple and yummy too!

  37. Adam

    After having Gajar ka Halwa at a restaurant, I had to make it for myself. After screwing up another recipe I found, I gave Manjula’s a try and it came out very well. I’m looking forward to trying more recipes from this site.

    1. Alanis

      I was about to try a simplified version of this recipe from another site, but was afraid it would come out bad (even their picture didn’t look appetizing). I knew that Manjula Aunty’s recipes always come out perfect so might as well try this one instead, even if it’s a bit more work. It actually was not that hard to make and didn’t take as long as I expected. It tastes great and looks awesome!

  38. nadira

    thanks to explain me how to make sweet dish .in sweet i like gaajer ka halwa manjula aunty very very thank you i like your all recipes .

  39. Lolita

    Always loved carrot halwa, but didn’t have a proper recipe. Your recipe was an amazing one. Thanks a lot aunty. Looking forward for more good ones 🙂

  40. Alideen Mohammed

    Thanks Aunty! I have been meaning to try and make this for ages…Buh i haven’t found a recipe which was easy to follow until i saw yours:)

  45. Akbar Ali

    Hello Manjulaji,

    Just wanted to let you know that I made this last weekend and it was *superb*!!! Literally, couldn’t stop eating it! Many, many thanks for posting such a wonderful and relatively easy to do recipe – my stomach thanks you!

    Any chance you have a Badam Halwa recipe? I’m sure you do . . . !!!

  46. drcolombia

  50. Ambreen Javid

    Thank you so much for this lovely video and all the rest you have. I am so glad that you made this video as I always thought that carrot halwa was very difficult to make. You made it so simple that my friends have even asked me how to make it.

    Please keep the videos coming as without them its impossible to get he dish right.

    Really respect your work and your style its so gentle and brilliant. You are a great teacher. Hugs.

    Ambreen Javid, Manchester, UK

    1. Alanis

      I can’t agree with this comment anymore! You’re right on about everything. The videos and instructions together make it super easy for a novice to make it at home. I love the simple, gentle style and the excellent explanations for why we do things a certain way or what reactions occur (ie: the sugar will release water for this recipe).

  51. Shruthi

    I love ur recipes.. Very helpful for us.. Good job 🙂 thank u verymuch 🙂

  52. parshottam mathur

    thank you for this recipes.It is very tasty.

  53. Jo

    Thanks for the recipe! I had modified it by adding 2-3 tbsp of quick cooking oats to the recipe and it was simply superb!!!!!

    1. Manjula Jain

      Jo,
      I enjoy reading when viewers share the creative changes to the recipe.

  54. dipali

    All your receipes are just delicious and very easy to follow.I live in Denmark and I am very glad to follow your receipes. You do a great job in teaching us as to how we should cook. Thank you.

    Thank you manjula ji for giving us such a beautiful site, cooking has become very simple for me now.So far i have tried besan k laddo, moong dal ka halwa and badam ki barfi

  57. Nirmala

    Hi Aunty,

    I tried this carrot halwa and every body liked it.
    Got excellent comments from friends.
    I really like your website.
    Will definitely try other recipes also..

  58. Hattie

    This is delicious.
    I made this for dessert this evening, but as I was busy making a few other dishes (Bainan Bjarta, Rice and Chana Dal), I substituted
    1 cup of canned evaporated vitamin D milk,
    rather than stand over the stove to reduce the 2 cups of milk. I just added it to the carrots like in step 6.
    I haven’t made it the other way yet, or tasted this before, but I’m pretty pleased with the results. It may be my new addiction. 🙂

  59. Vijay

    Manjula Ji,

    I was missing this classic dish, since when I left Jaipur, where this is very famous in one of the sweet stall by name LAKSHMI MISHTAN BHANDAR.

    Today I tried @ home and to my surprise the taste is very gud.

    Thnx again making my memories afresh

    Vijay

  60. viveka

    Hi,
    thanks for the easy recipe, halwa came out well. Since it was my first try, I was reluctant to try. But it came well.

    thanks

  61. Murali

    you didn’t mention when to add the cardamom powder, as a result i forgot to add it……still it was delicious though.

    1. Manjula Jain

      Murali,
      Sorry, cardamom powder should be added at the same time with the sugar.

  62. Tanu

    Hi Aunty,
    Thanks a lot for your nice dishes. 🙂
    I have a question. When we should use kadhai and when flat frying pan?
    waiting for your answer.

  63. Chris Chopp

    Manjulaji, thanks for an easy demonstration on how to make a new favorite dessert. Somehow I missed this wonderful treat until my travels through South India where it often became a sought-after night cap. Look forward to more.

    1. arpita

      Manjula ji, This is the first recipe i tried from your site. Its great and so simple. Your recipes are so homely with no fancy stuff. Thanks a lot. I will try other ones too. You are helping Indians who are away from home and do not know much cooking. I thank you for the tip on microwaving the milk instead of boiling it on the stove.

  64. Sunita Magus

    Dear Mangulla, You come out in your video demonstrations as a warm, large hearted lady who really likes to cook and share her recipes. God Bless, you certainly have graced many, many homes with the wonderful food you turn out.

    I tried your Pista Kulfi today. It is resting in the freezer ready to be eaten tomorrow. By the look and smell of it, it certainly is a relish to be desired.

    Thank You once again and will certainly drop you a line to let you know of the outcome.

    Sunita.

  67. Maricar Verma

    Hi Aunty Manjula,

    Thank you for all your help to us wives who love to cook Indian dishes. I have tried making Gajar ka Halwa using your recipe and it was a hit to my husband. It is simple and delicious. But I find that the amount of milk is too much which requires me to cook it for long time until it dries. Nowadays I add around 1/4 cup less of milk.

    All the best to your site.

    Regards,
    Maricar

  68. Surekha Dangoor

    This is the best halwa I have ever made!! My husband said this was the best halwa he has ever eaten, in or out of the home! Thank you!!

  76. shweta sharma

  77. Miki

  82. saj

    Thanks for the recipe! Tried it once…would have turned out right had I put sugar instead of salt!! tried it again and SUCCESS!! lol thank you again!!!

  83. Jaya

    Just made this today and it turned out well. I added a little more sugar than the 1/4 cup.

    FYI, it takes about 4 to 5 medium carrots to make 2 cups of grated carrots.

    I omitted the cashews but the halwa was still really good.

  84. Joanne

    Namaste Auntiji,

    I have made this gajar ka halwa and it turned out delicious. My boyfriend really enjoys it and he is a fussy eater. Thankyou for your wonderful recipe. I will continue to look through your recipes for other ideas.

  86. Kimberly

    Can you use evaporated milk in this recipe instead of reducing the milk?

  87. Dr. Kaushik

    Manjula Ji. You are amazing.Your presentation is simple but effective.Thanks.

  88. Darren

    I made this earlier, it is amazingly nice! I didn’t realise it would be this easy to make. I did as you suggested and cooked a little longer in order to press it into a pan and slice later, but I’m afraid I ate already about 1/3rd of the mixture while still warm so there’s not a lot left =)
    Thank you again!

  89. Quincy

    Here’s a suggestion for those that have juicers at home-

    I have a juicer that I often make carrot juice with… in the end, I am left with all this carrot pulp that used to end up in the garbage because I didn’t know what to do with it… I used this same pulp to make Gajar ka halva using Manjula’s recipe and it came out really nice.

  90. anushma

    hii aunty…bt wen shud we add cardamum powder???

    1. Manjula Jain

      Hi Anushma, add the cardmom towards the end.

    Hi Parul, you can use half n half about 1 cup, I dont like to use it because halwa becomes very creamy for my taste.

    Auntyji,i hv tried ur recipe n halwa came out yummy..i liked that u fried carrirts first instead of adding milk firts,i think dta makes the difference.Now,i hv aquestion,can i use half and half instead of reducing mik?if yes,then how much half n half milk shud i use?

  114. Rothrock

    Oh my goodness. This makes this dish so simple and absolutely delicious! I’ve made this several times and it just gets better everytime. Like Caren I’ve added raisins, but I brown them and the cashews in some ghee and they are really good.

    Also I sprinkle a little kewra water over the top after I take it from the heat. It really purfumes it well and I like the addition. Anybody else do this?

    Thank you so much Manjulaji.

    Hi Manjula

    I made this today, it turned out great! I changed a couple of things. After reducing the milk for a while I added the sugar and the cardamom powder and kept boiling the milk for a couple of minutes for and thus so incorporating the cardamom & sugar into the milk. I also added a handful of raisins when I added the milk to carrots. Great Website Thanks!
