Directions
Carrot Halva,This rich and satisfying Indian sweet is simple to prepare, though it does take time and patience for the carrots to cook gently as you stir so that the correct consistency is achieved.,Definitely a new kind of treat for me, but then I do enjoy the ol’ carrot, so . . . Made these to share at a potluck a couple of weeks ago, then forgot to review them! You have a wonderful recipe here, & I followed it right on down! Everyone at the potluck enjoyed them, & I have plans to make them again before the end of the month! Many thanks for sharing the recipe! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]
