My sons love this sweet. Fresh grated carrots gives this sweet the bright orange color. A bit tedious to make since we have to stir it till it gets to the right consistency. But definitely worth it. I usually make it only for their birthdays or special occasions.
Ingredients
Carrots grated - 2 Cups
Sugar - 1 cup
Butter unsalted - 1 stick
Salt and pinch
Cardamom - seeds from 6 pods ground to fine powder
Whole Milk - 1 Cup
Steps
1. Cook the carrots with milk and sugar and salt in a pressure cooker till one whistle or in a heavy pot pan till it is cooked well.
2. Add the butter and and keep stirring. Bring it to a boil. Simmer and keep stirring till all the liquid evaporates and the carrot mixture has thickened.
3. Add the cardamom powder and stir well and switch off the heat when the oil separates out and it has thickened.
4. Spread the carrot mixture in an oiled plate and let cool
5. Make into small balls and put in candy wraps as shown in picture.
Can be chilled and served.
