Beetroot Halwa

Ingredients:

Grated Beetroot – 4 cups
Milk – 1/2 cup
Milk Cream – 1 Tbsp (optional)
Sugar – 1 and 1/4 cup
Ghee – 1 Tbsp
Cardamom Powder – 1/2 tsp
Raisins (Kishmish) – 10
Cashew Nuts – 5-6

Preperations :
Cook the grated Beetroot with milk in a pressure cooker until you hear about 2 whistles. Alternatively, you can also cook in microwave for 5 min.
In a small frying pan, pour Ghee and heat the same. Add Raisins and Cashew nuts. Fry them until they turn golden brown and keep aside.
In another pan, add cooked Beetroot, Sugar and Fresh Milk Cream and stir continuously. Let the Sugar dissolve; the whole mixture becomes watery.  Continue to stir well until the water dissappears.
Add Cardamom Powder and fried Cashew nuts and Raisins and stir once and remove from the flame.
Serve Beetroot Halwa chilled or at normal temperature depending on your liking.
