"Aroma From a Guest Kitchen"- (Guest- Vidhya Souresh)- Carrot Kheer


By My Kitchen's Aroma (Visit website)



 
Guest: Vidhya Souresh
Dish: Carrot Kheer
 
Vidhya is my friend  'V' that I mention in many of my recipes. We spend a good 6-7 years together in Ithaca,NY. In those years...I must have learnt a lot of recipes, techniques from Vidhya and had her delicious food countless times!Oh how I miss those days :( 
When I was pregnant with 'A', Vidhya made this really nutritious and delicious (at the same time)..Carrot kheer for me. She said this kheer was made by her mom when she was little. The Carrot kheer  can be had as a 'warm dessert'/ or cold with a scoop of ice cream or even as a 'drink' for the kids. Either ways.... it tastes "AWESOME!!!
 
Ingredients:
carrots-3cups
sugar -1cup or little less
cashews-10nos(soaked in milk for 20 min)
ghee-1tbsp
sliced almonds-4tbsps(garnishing)
cardamon-1tsp
saffron-1tsp
milk-5cups (healthier version)
or
half & half-1cup & milk 3cups(occasionally.........to jazz up your taste buds)
1/8 tsp -salt.
vanilla ice cream(optional).


Method:
     
-grate the carrots and saute in ghee until raw smell disappears.
