Carrot Kheer / Gajar Ki Kheer is my families favorite dessert. This recipe requires fresh carrots. The use of ghee and cardamom powder adds nice aroma and flavors. You can add condensed milk to reduce the cooking time. But this time I made it without condensed milk. This Carrot kheer is perfect for Small Parties and gets together.

Carrot Kheer is very easy to make and taste very delicious hot or chilled, I like chilled though. The only work is grating the carrots. I did grate carrots in food processor to reduce the time and work. 🙂

 

How to make Carrot Kheer?

  1. Heat ghee in a pan. Add grated carrots and saute them for 5 to 6 minutes over medium flame. Stir continuously. Keep it aside.

  2. Take whole milk in the heavy bottom pan. Let it boil. When the milk comes to a boil, add sauteed carrot. Lower the flame over low to medium heat. Let it cook for 45 minutes to an hour over low to medium heat. Add cardamom powder, chopped nuts, and sugar. Let it cook for another 10 to 15 minutes.

  3. Let it cools down completely. Cover it and refrigerate it for minimum of 2 hours.

  4. Carrot Kheer / Carrot Payasam is ready.
