Favourite Winter Dish (carrot halwa)

Personally, my favourite sweet dish is Carrot halwa, also known as gajar halwa, is a traditional Indian dessert made with grated carrots, milk, sugar, and a mixture of nuts and spices. It is usually served hot and is a popular dessert during festivals and special occasions. The carrots are cooked until they are soft and then mixed with milk and sugar until the mixture becomes thick and creamy. The nuts and spices are added for flavor and texture. Some variations of carrot halwa also include ingredients such as raisins, cardamom, and saffron.
