Ingredients

Beetroot – 1 cup diced

Milk – 1 cup

Sugar – ½ cup

Cashewnut – 15 – 20 nuts

Cardamon – 1 tsp

Ghee – 1 tbsp

Method

1.Chop the beetroot to medium size cubes. now steam the beetroot keeping it in your idli pan or boil it in water. Wait till it’s half cooked.

I prefer steaming because it is quick and healthy. If you are boiling it, you have to stain the beetroot to remove excess water. The nutrition’s may be lost in the water that you to stain.

2.Now transfer the half cooked beetroot to a mixie jar and coarsely grind it.This is an important step, because if you paste it it will become jammy !! just grind it in whiper mode to a coarse consistency

3.In a pan pour one cup boiled milk and add the ground beetroot to it.

4.Milk will boil and rise. When it rises stir it. In 15 minutes you will get the consistency as shown in picture. Milk will reduce to half.

5.Add half cup of sugar and Keep stirring it. You will get the halwa consistency as the sugar gets boiled. Add one spoon ghee and cardamom to it.

6.Now add two spoons of ghee to a small pan and roast cashew nuts till golden brown

7.Add this roasted nuts along with the excess ghee to your halwa. Give it a turn and transfer it to the serving bowl
