Winters…. time to stay warm and also the best time to cook and enjoy some hearty meals and winter delicacies that are not only finger lickingly yummy but are also packed with the nutrients that keep our body warm and immune.

Gajar Ka Halwa(Carrot Pudding) also popularly known as Gajrela is another North Indian winter delight which is a ‘must make’ for all the households. It is one of the favourite desserts of all age groups and no one can’t resist eating a bowl of hot halwa after meals. People make it in big batch and store for good 8-10 days. I really miss the Red Carrots that we get in North India during winter times. While in Mumbai, these red carrots were available during short time in winter months and I never missed a chance to cook halwa with those red carrots. Anyone who has eaten the Red carrots Halwa will agree with me that it tastes best when made with those Red Carrots. Many people have told me that here in US red carrots are sometimes available in Farmer’s market, till now I never had the chance to go there so I make with the orange ones available in stores. 

Traditionally made with grated carrots that are simmered in milk, desi ghee( clarified Indian Butter)and nuts till the milk evaporates to a creamy consistency and carrots are completely cooked, it is served hot, garnished with some more nuts. Making it in a traditional way consumes a lot of time but the result is worth all the efforts. Nowadays people have time constraints and since it is a must make dessert for winters, many have adapted to the quick way of making it .

I learnt the quick way of making this from my mom, who was a working mom, had limited time for cooking, so she used this quick method at times. Mom had her own quick ways of making yummy and delicious food!!

The quick way of making halwa takes around 30-40 minutes, uses khoya(mawa, evaporated milk solids) or condensed milk. Cook the carrots with milk in a pressure cooker for 2-3 whistles, then cook in ghee and khoya add sugar and nuts and the halwa is ready within 30-40 minutes. I use Khoya for making it. Store-bought or homemade any will do. For homemade Khoya recipe click here. You can also use Milk Powder or Condensed milk inplace of Khoya. Omit sugar when using condensed milk.

Here in US, I came to know about another great ingredient/substitute to Khoya for making Gajar Halwa and other Indian desserts and sweets. Ricotta Cheese!! It is so easy to use, just microwave it for 5-6 mins to evaporate the extra water content, add to the cooking carrots along with ghee, throw in some nuts, and the scrumptious treat is ready!!

If you are a vegan or lactose intolerant, then also you can enjoy this sweet treat. Replace Milk with Almond Milk and in place of Khoya or Ricotta add Almond Meal. Please refer the recipe notes for the same.The steps for preparing  halwa remains the same if you are using khoya or almond meal for vegan option.

Let’s see the recipe for this delicious dessert delight.

Pressure Cooker Recipe for Gajar Ka Halwa

Gajar Halwa

One of the most popular Indian winter sweet treats, Gajar Ka Halwa. Carrots cooked in milk and evaporated milk solids, sweetened with sugar and garnished with lots of nuts.Learn how to make quick and easy Gajar Halwa under 30 minutes, without khoya in Pressure cooker on Stove top .

500 g Carrots

200 g Khoya (if using)

250 g Ricotta Cheese (if not using Khoya)

1 Cup Milk

2-3 Tbsp Ghee

4-6 Tbsp Sugar (or as required)

Mixed Nuts as required

Wash and rinse carrots. Peel the carrots and grate. This is the most time-consuming step if you are grating by hand. I use my food processor which gets my work done in 1-2 minutes.

  In a pressure cooker, add carrots and milk to it. Cook the carrots with open lid for 5-6 mins, close the lid and cook until 2 whistles. Switch off the flame. Wait for the pressure to subside. Open the lid and keep on low flame for the rest of the liquid to evaporate.

Meanwhile, take ricotta in a microwave-safe bowl add a tsp of ghee, and microwave it for 2-3 minutes or till all the liquid evaporate. Add to halwa along with ghee and raisins , nuts and cook on medium flame, stirring frequently. In case you are using Khoya in place of Ricotta, add to the carrots along with ghee. Keep stirring in between.This will take around 10-20 minutes.

Add sugar and mix well. Cook till all the milk/liquid content evaporates from the carrots and you get a nice crumbly halwa.

 Garnish with more chopped nuts and serve hot.

For Vegan option…

Add Almond Milk instead of Milk.

Replace khoya/ricotta with 1/2 Cup Almond Meal.

Replace Desi Ghee with any dairy-free unsalted butter.

I have tried making halwa with almond milk so am not sure about how, soy milk and coconut milk work(the after taste) in gajar halwa as I have not used these for making halwa.

If you have nut Allergies, replace Almonds and Cashew nuts with sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds.

If adding Khoya, do not add ricotta cheese, it is a substitute for Khoya.

Incase, if you do not have Khoya or Ricotta either, add 3/4 Cup of Milk Powder

    Peel and wash carrots

Grate and transfer to a pressure cooker, and add milk and cook for 2 whistles

Cooked carrots after 2 whistles

Take Ricotta Chesse

Microwae for 4-5 mintues till the water content evaporated or reduces

Add to the carrots

Cook for some time, stirring in between

Add in chpped nuts

Cook till all the liquid content evaporarates and carrots and milk reduces to a fudgy consistency

Cooked Carrot Halwa

Cooking Halwa in Instant Pot..I recently bought Instant Pot and I am trying out various recipes in it. I take reference from the various recipes available online for Instant Pot cooking , adapt to what suits best for me and then cook the dish. Making Carrot Halwa in Instant Pot is quite easy and quick. Add milk along with a tbsp of Ghee and pressure cook carrots for 5-6 minutes. Once the cook time is over, release the pressure. Switch on the saute mode keep on medium heat, then cook for another 5-6 minutes, stirring it to evaporate all the liquid from carrots. Add Khoya/microwaved Ricotta/Almond Meal. Mix nicely and cook for another 5-6 minutes, stirring continuously. Add ghee and sugar mix and cook again for 7-8 minutes, till halwa is crumbly and all the liquid evaporates. Keep the heat to medium or low while cooking halwa on Saute mode, as halwa can burn at the bottom.

Learn how to make your favourite Gajar Ka Halwa in Instant Pot.

Add carrots with a cup of milk/almond milk and a tbsp of ghee/dairy-free butter in Instant Pot, cover the lid and seal. Switch on the pressure mode and set the timer for 5 minutes(high Pressure).

Once the timer is off, do quick pressure release(QPR), and set the saute mode on. Keep it on medium. 

Cook the carrots to evaporate all the liquid. Keep stirring in between.

If adding ricotta, microwave ricotta cheese for 4-5 minutes to evaporate the extra liquid. 

Add ricotta, mix nicely, keep mixing and stirring,take care it does not burn at the bottom. For vegan option add 1/2 cup of almond meal.

Add desi ghee/non-dairy butter and sugar, mix nicely and cook for another 7-8 minutes, till it is crumbly.

Cooking ghee/butter is an important step, do not skip it.

If you are allergic to nuts, avoid adding nuts, add pumpkin or sunflower seeds.

I have the Instant Pot Ultra Model, but these setting work for halwa  in other models as well. Only the display screen of Ultra is different than the earlier models.

Will soon update pics for the steps of making Halwa in Instant pot.

Hot Gajar Halwa also tastes great with Rabri. I had some Almond Rabri in the fridge, and some leftover mixed nut chikki/ brittle, turned into a gourmet dessert!! and enjoyed Garam Garam Gajar Ka Halwa with thandi thandi( chilled) rabri, garnished with brittle pieces, that gave a nice caramelised crunch to halwa!!For a quick nut brittle, take a spoonful of cashews and almonds, chopped into small pieces, in a non-stick pan melt 1-tbsp of sugar, with very little ghee/oil(1/2 tsp), when sugar starts melting, add nuts to it and mix nicely. Quickly take out on a butter paper or a greased pan, press to a thin layer, when slightly warm, break into pieces and use as required. Click here for the detailed recipe of Mixed Nut  Gur Chikki/Brittle.

Make Gajar Ka Halwa either in pressure cooker or in Instant Pot and enjoy this winter delight with your loved ones. Enjoy it just like that in traditional way topped with nuts or enjoy it  topped with some vanilla ice-cream or rabri.

Gajar Ka Halwa is a must have in the dinner menu for many on the occasion of Lohri in Punjab along with Sarson Ka Saag and Makki Ki Roti. It is a gluten-free desert and you can also replace sugar with stevia  for sugar free versionar. Stevia is more sweeter than sugar, adjust as per your taste. Many people also add jaggery/palm sugar in it. The taste differs when we add jaggery or palm sugar. I have added jaggery but never palm sugar.

I will love to hear your feedback on the post and my blog and when you make this do post a pic on any of my social media pages.. FB page or tag me on Instagram. You can also Pin the recipe for later use.

Malpua recipe is not as daunting as it seems. Malpua is an Indian sweet dish that is basically a sugar syrup soaked pancake prepared from a batter of flour, milk and cardamom. These pancakes are usually fried in ghee till crisp along the edges, soaked in sugar syrup, garnished with pistachios and served warm with a topping of Rabri aka rich thickened milk. There are many variations of Malpua based on the region it is prepared. In Orissa, it is served as prasad to Lord Jagannath while the people of West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra make it for festivals like Sankranti and Holi. A popular variation of the Malpua batter is to add grated coconut and ripe bananas which yields a soft and spongy pancake. With Holi round the corner, I decided on Mawa Malpua recipe for my dear readers. A rich variation is the mawa malpua where mawa or unsweetened khoya is added to the batter. These rich pancakes are also immersed in sugar syrup flavored with saffron and served with rabri. Serve your family and friends this soft textured heavenly dessert along with other special Holi special recipes like Gujiya and Thandai.

At every Indian party, or celebration and in restaurants one sweet treat that is always served are Gulab Jamun.

Now you can find Gulab Jamun in stores too in tinned packages, but nothing having a Gulab Jamun from the local Halwai shop(snacks and traditional mithai shops in India) or the ones made at home!!

Here I am with a an easy recipe using milk powder/milk mawa, that you can prepare within 30 minutes from start to finish!!

Today is the auspicious occasion Dusherra and I made these sweet treats for the occasion!! To know more about Dusherra click here..

Sometimes we miss all the fun of traditional festivals here, far away from home.. but then I always try to make something traditional for family and we celebrate the festivals in our own little ways!!

Dusherra Special

On my facebook group Foodie Monday Bloghop, all the members are dishing up their favourite or Dusherra special treats!! #VijayDashmiSpecial. Dusherra is also known as Vijay Dushmi!!

In our families(me and my hubby’s side) we have this traditon of having Jalebis with milk or Rabri.  In morning my dad always got Jalbei from market and after pooja, we used to have it  with mom’s homemade rabri or in hot milk!!  At some occasion I remember my gradmom(dadi) made  Aatte ke Pue for Dusherra Pooja!! Lunch used to be of simple steamed rice with dhuli Urad dal(Split and skinned black gram lentil) with buttermilk and some dry veggie. 

Since I already have Crispy Jalebi and Atte Ke Pue recipe on the blog so I decided to link these sweet syrupy Gulab Jamuns for Dusherra Special . Kids too were thrilled to have Gulab Jamuns after they came back from school!

What are Gulab Jamun

Gulab Jamun are deep fried sweet balls made of milk solids, dipped in sugar syrup. 

At my place Gulab Jamun are one of the favourite festival treats after the simple and humble Sooji Ka Halwa and Chawal Ki Kheer(Rice Pudding). Kids, hubby love Gulab Jamun and more than them it is me who adores these sweet treats dipped in sugar syrup.

My favourite Indian Mithai since I was a toddler, that’s my mom recalls!! Whenever she made these or my dad used to get it from market, mom always had to find some safe place hiding from me especially when guests were coming over!! so that she could save it from me for guests dad and my little sis 😉 !!

Till date I love gorging on Gulab Jamun but now no one has to hide these from me !! t and I also eat these sensibly, due to lot of sugar in it. I always make these on festivals ad serve to my family and friends!!

How to make Gulab Jamun

Preparing Gulab Jamun takes very less time but it is little tricky to get the right texture. But with few tips and tricks we can makes soft melt in mouth Gulab Jamuns at home too.

The whole process can be divided into three parts..

Making of Khoya Balls/Gulab Jamun balls,

Deep Frying the balls and

Making Sugar Syrup.

Making of Khoya Balls 

Gulab Jamun are made out of khoya/mawa or evaporated milk solids. I don’t like the store bought khoya that is available here at local Indian stores, so either I make my own or use milk powder/milk mawa to make Indian Khoya based desserts.

Milk Mawa is a kind of evaporated milk that we get at Indian Grocery stores. Milk powder(evaporated milk) is available at other regular stores like(Walmart) can also be used as substitute for Khoya. To Mathura Ke Pede, Kalakand recipes and many other sweet Indian desserts , I use milk powder as substitute for khoya.

To make homemade Khoya you can check out this recipe link, where I have explained easy way out to make khoya especially for those living out of India.

Coming back to Gulab Jamun I used milk mawa here  you can use milk powder.

Gulab jamun are deep fried, we need some binding agent also so that the balls don’t break while frying. I use all-purpose flour or semolina for that. In the post I have covered both the methods. The results are almost same. We get soft melt in  mouth gulab jamun with either of the two.

Other ingredients are baking powder(makes  it soft and puffs up khoya balls, desi ghee for binding and milk to knead the dough. I have used leftover paneer whey that we get after making paneer (Indian Cottage Cheese) at home. Left over Paneer whey is a good source of proteins and can be use in place of water or milk while kneading dough for chapatis or breads or baking muffins.

Steps to make Khoya balls

Mix milk powder/milk mawa with semolina(sooji) /all-purpose flour(maida), baking powder and milk it nicely.

Add ghee ad mix nicely with hands. Rub it in milk powder ix with fingers.

Add lukewarm paneer whey/milk and very gently knead the dough. It should be soft and not crumbly.Do not knead the dough very tightly. Jamuns will break while frying.

Make small balls (lemon sized), the balls expand so keep the size keeping it in mind. Keep the balls covered with a cloth.

Frying Gulab Jamun Balls

Fry Gulab Jamun balls on low heat. The oil should not be very hot, to check drop a tiny ball of dough in oil it should rise slowly to surface.

Drop 1 jamun to check whether the dough is good enough, fry it on low flame, if it doesn’t break, add another batch.

Drop 3-4 balls at a time if you are making it for the first time.

Keep the flame low while frying, else balls will remain uncooked from inside.

Fry balls till light brown. We like little more deep fried gulab jamun balls.

  Making Sugar Syrup

For sugar syrup, we need castor/granulated sugar, water, saffron strands(optional), cardamom pods or powder  and rose essence.

Gulab Jamuns when dipped in sugar syrup, increase in size so take a big vessel as per the quantity .

In a deep and big  pan/kadhai add 3 cups water and  2 cups of sugar. Add saffron strands, cardamom powder or pods.Also add rose essence. I did not have it so I skipped it.

Boil the solution for 7-8 minutes till it becomes sticky. Don’t cook it more, we don’t want any string in sugar solution.

Drop gulab jamun balls in sugar syrup when it is warm. Do not drop balls when it is too hot or too cold. Gulab Jamuns can break when the syrup is too hot and will not soak syrup when too cold.

Leave Gulab Jamun in the pan covered for 2-3 hrs, till they puff up and soak syrup.

Refrigerate for storing and serve chilled or warm .

How to serve Gulab Jamun

Chilled or warm, each one has there own preference of having Gulab Jamun.

To warm, gulab Jamun, microwave in a microwave safe bowl for 10-20 seconds, serve with rabri or vanilla ice-cream.

  A rich buttery, cardamom-infused Mawa/Khoya cakes are rich tea cakes that known to be the specialty of Mumbai’s Parsi Cafes.These cakes are extremely delicious, soft and buttery. Traditionally, eggs are used in baking Mawa cakes, but since these days so many people prefer eggless bakes, we can bake equally good eggless version also.

In Mumbai where I had my home- baking venture, I made eggless Thandai* flavored mawa cakes/cupcakes during Holi for my clients. I used Thandai flavored fresh whipped cream for frosting. Store bought Thandai syrup or Thandai Powder both can be used giving the flavor. For this post, I have used homemade Thandai paste. I was making Thandai syrup when my daughter reminded me of the Thandai flavored cupcakes that I made during Holi in Mumbai. She loves Thandai milk and loved Thandai Mawa cupcakes. So I saved some paste while making Thandai. I have these cute mini bundts and decided to bake mini bundts this time. For frosting, I have used Thandai flavored and saffron infused White Chocolate Ganache. The soft, khoya cakes moistened with diluted Thandai syrup and frosted with saffron and thandai infused white chocolate ganache, tastes almost like Rasmalai( an Indian dessert made with Indian Cottage Cheese in thickened milk syrup).

*For those who don’t know about Thandai, it is an Indian summer drink that is prepared with Almonds, Cashew nuts or pistachios along with fennel, poppy and melon seeds, black peppercorns, rose petals, saffron. It is prepared in concentrated form like sugar syrup and is mixed with cold milk for consumption. It is one of the best summer cooler drink and helps to keep the body cool.

Give a try to these mini bundts and have something new this festival season.You can bake in cupcake pans or an 8-inch cake pan.I have used a combination of All purpose flour and almond meal/flour. You can use only all-purpose flour if you want.Substitute the amount of All-purpose flour with Almond meal. Also, increase the amount of Mawa or Khoya to 150 gms in the recipe. Mawa used can be store-bought or homemade.

Let’s see the ingredients and the method to bake these mini mawa cakes. This recipe gives you 4 mini bundts and 9 mini bite-sized cupcakes, or 12 medium cupcakes or and one 8-inch round cake.

Ingredients:

For Mawa Cakes:

All-Purpose Flour– 175 gms

Almond Meal– 25gms

Thandai Paste/ Powder–10-15 gms

Khoya– 100 gms

Butter–80 gms

Baking Powder– 1 Tsp

Baking Soda–1/2 Tsp

Curd–4 Tbsp

Milk — 100ml

Apple Cider Vinegar–5 ml

Method for Mawa Cakes:

Preheat oven to 350°F or 180°C.

Grease the bundt pans with oil/butter and dust very lightly with flour. Tap off the extra flour from the pan. If you are using a cupcake tray then line the muffin liners.

All ingredients should be at room temperature.

Sieve together all-purpose flour, almond meal, baking powder, baking soda and salt if using unsalted butter or using oil. If you are using Thandai Masala, sift it with flour. I used oil for the recipe and added 1/4 tsp of salt with the flour.

If using butter beat softened butter and sugar together.

Once light and fluffy, add curd and beat until creamy.

Add vinegar in milk to make buttermilk and let it stand till it is added with flour. Don’t mix it.

Add Thandai paste and mix.

Add flour in 3 parts mix alternating with buttermilk. Finally, add some saffron infused milk.

Transfer the batter to pans and bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes in mini bundt pans or cupcake tray.

Once baked check the doneness by inserting a toothpick into the cake it should come out clean and also cake should leave the sides of the pan. Transfer to cooling rack and cool completely.

Ganache can be stored in the refrigerator for a month and in the freezer for about 3 months.

If you don’t have White Chocolate, you can use Rabri as topping for mawa cakes. Please check the recipe for instant Almond Rabri. Add some Thandai powder or syrup to rabri to get the Thandai flavor.

If you don’t want to Thandai flavor in the cake or ganache, skip it, flavor it with cardamom/ nutmeg or cinnamon powder.
