Beetroot Halwa

Ingredients:

• Beetroot - 2
• Milk - 1 1/2 cups
• Ghee - 2 spoons
• Sugar to taste
• Badam and other dry fruits of choice

Method:

Peel and finely grate the beetroot. Take a pan and add ghee. Once heated fry the dry fruits(I used badam flakes). Keep the dryfruit separate and add grated beetroot to the same ghee. Stirr it on and off until the beetroot softens. Add sugar at this point. Mix well and let the beetroot cook in sugar for 10 mins. Add half of the milk and let it boil. Keep stirring it to avoid lumps. When the milk is almost absorbed add the rest of the milk. Once the milk is absorbed also keep the flame in sim and keep stirring the halwa. At this point the halwa should take the original color of beetroot. Stop cooking when the halwa solidifies and doesn't stick to the pan anymore. Add dry fruits and let it cool. Can be served hot and cold. I liked it cold :)
