CARROT HALWA / GAJAR HALWA / DESSERT

Carrot Halwa is a traditional Punjabi dish. I don't know why but my mom never made this is in home, so i tasted this in buffets along with Ice cream and it tastes awesome. I liked it very much but I never thought of preparing it in home. Here in Sweden they are selling large amount of root vegetables ( like beet root, potato, carrots, turnip) and frequently they are giving offers on these vegetables but a single pack contains 2 Kg to 5 Kg of vegetables not less than that. Now you can guess why most of my posted recipes are related to carrot :). Yes I always have more than a Kg of carrots in my kitchen, I thought of finishing it soon and so comes the delicious recipe Carrot Halwa, I prepared this for the first time along with my neighbors and we had it hot hot during day time chit chat. ( I know it is very hot summer in India, but here in Sweden it is just a 3 degree) Yeah of course DH surprised to see a new recipe when he is back from office ;)



Here comes the recipe,

BREAD HALWA / WHEAT BREAD HALWA / INDIAN DESSERT

Sweets/Desserts who says NO to this? It plays a vital role in Indian Cuisine. There are many sweet dishes available in Indian Cuisine. One among those is Halwa, this can be prepared with fruits, vegetables , Corn flour, Maida, Wheat flour and also with Bread. I already tried preparing  this dish with some fruits and vegetables. 

  One of my neighbor / friend prepared and offered Bread Halwa few days ago, that is the first time I had Bread Halwa and I liked it very much. I thought of giving it a try, my friend prepared it with maida bread but only wheat bread was available in my kitchen so I tried with that, and it came out very well with different taste. Sri returned back from office and very much surprised to see a new recipe :)
