A beloved North Indian winter dessert, Gajar ka Halwa is a classic Indian carrot pudding made by slow-cooking grated carrots with milk, sugar, and ghee until it reaches a pudding-like consistency. It is a luscious treat that is often a winter-time staple in the north, but is enjoyed throughout the country year-round during festivals and occasions.
