Gajar Ka Halwa

#Diwalidelights - This dessert is a very popular sweet in the Northern regions of India, especially Punjab. They are generally grated carrots, cooked with sugar, milk, dry fruits, khoya and cardamom powder. Due to unavailability of khoya, I used store bought pedas. They were a perfect substitute and gave this dessert a good taste and flavour.
