Beetroot halwa


Ingredients:
Beetroot-1 cup
Milk-1/2cup(1/4 cup water+1/4 cup milk)
sugar-1/2cup
cardamom-1-2
cashew-few
cucumber seeds-1tsp(optional)
ghee-2tbsp
Method:
Peel the skin of beetroot, grate and kept aside.Heat little ghee in the pan. (I always use rice cooker to make halwas and it comes out well).Fry the cashews and kept aside. In the same ghee fry beetroot until raw smell disappears.Add the milk to the beetroot and close the pan.Wait until beets are cooked well and milk is entirely absorbed. Now add sugar and ghee ,stir well until the mixture turns semisolid.close the pan again. wait until it comes to automatic warm or ghee seperates on top and the halwa doesn't stick to the sides of the pan.Garnish with fried cashews/cucumber seeds.
