And when prepared fresh at home, nothing can quite compare to its taste. You all must have tried the regular version many times, but have you ever tried a tadke wala gajar ka halwa? It may sound strange to you at first but it's just a more indulgent version of the classic dessert. A video of the preparation of this unique halwa went viral on the internet a few months ago. As the winter season is back again, we suggest you give it a try as well.

Here Are The 5 Ingredients You'll Need To Make Tadke Wala Gajar Halwa:
1. Carrots
The quality of the carrots determines how good your gajar ka halwa turns out. Try to get your hands on the red-coloured carrots, as they offer a sweeter taste than the orange ones. Always buy fresh carrots to ensure there's no compromise on flavour.
2. Ghee
Ghee is what gives gajar ka halwa a rich taste. Apart from using it to cook the carrots, this recipe calls for drizzling some over it as well, just like a tadka. It's best to use desi ghee for this. Heat the ghee in a pan and add a handful of dry fruits to it. And your tadka is ready!
3. Sugar
You'll also require an adequate amount of sugar to make this gajar ka halwa. You can use regular granulated white sugar to make it. Once the carrots are fully cooked, that's when you add the sugar and stir it until it gets fully dissolved.
4. Nuts
Gajar ka halwa without nuts would just feel incomplete, wouldn't it? Stock your pantry with nuts such as cashew nuts, almonds, and pistachios. You'll need them not only to mix with the carrots but also for ghee tadka for drizzling in the end.
