Receta Gajjar ke Halva (carrot halva)
This wonderfully aromatic halva is more of a very thick pudding than the squares of halva bought in stores. It is delicious as dessert & also great at breakfast-time, witha little toast. I've made fancy party desserts by putting a spoon of it on phyllo dough , folding dough into triangles & baking light golden brown.

Direcciones
- In large, heavy-bottomed pot, put all the ingredients except rosewater. Bring to a boil & then turn heat down until it comes to a very slow simmer. Simmer, stirring often, for approx. 1 and 1/2 hours or until halva is very thick & most of the moisture is cooked off. Transfer to a serving dish & let cool 15 minutes & then stir in 2 teaspoons of rosewater. Top may be decorated with edible silver foil ( available at Indo/Pak grocery stores).
