Carrot Almond Halwa

Today I made carrot juice for my lo and gave it through sippy cup. Hence need to strain out the excess. Whenever I make carrot juice I either discard the remains from the strainer or drink it along with sugar and water. I'm in no mood to drink it nor discard the carrot remains. I quickly added few more carrot pieces to the blender along with half and half (full cream 🍼 milk ), blended it very nicely. To this, I added the carrot remains from the strainer and poured into a hot pan. Stirred it for 5 minutes. Later added almond cashew paste to it. Stirred for another 5 minutes. Then added a good amount of sugar (1:1 ratio of carrot to sugar), a generous amount of ghee, stirred well for another 5 minutes. By now, the halwa starts to ooze out the ghee and doesn't stick to the sides of the pan. Finally add cardamom powder and ghee roasted cashews, pistachios and raisins. Oh, my gosh golly! It tasted like heaven with the best of both carrots and almonds. I'm loving the new recipe....
