Gajar Halwa is a decadent Indian dessert made from grated carrots, milk, sugar, and a medley of aromatic spices. Originating from the northern regions of India, this sweet treat is traditionally prepared during winter months when carrots are in season. Slow-cooked to perfection, it’s garnished with nuts like almonds and pistachios, giving it a rich texture and flavor. While it’s undeniably indulgent, it also boasts nutrients from carrots, making it a somewhat healthier dessert option when enjoyed in moderation. Delight in the warmth and sweetness of Gajar Halwa—a beloved classic!
