About

Carrot is one of the tastiest and healthiest vegetables of all. It does have an advantage over our eyesight. It is probably one of the vegetables that is used for making sweets too. Who can forget the splendid halwa made out of it?

I tried carrot kheer on my own taking help from my mother. It’s not a new sweet. I presume many of you might have had it quite a number of times.
