Directions
Carrot Halva,This unique Indian dessert was found in the cookbook, Vancouver Entertains.,Love this recipe with Cardamon. I find it takes much longer to cook than 40 minutes….so used the crock pot, and substituted Agave syrup for my no sugar eaters. Turned out lovely for Divali party….,This came out nicely, but for a bit more authenticity you must add some ground cardamon for flavour (only about 1/2 teaspoon). It’s in pretty much all indian desserts.
