200 grams (about 8 oz.) carrots grated
1 cup(s)milk
2 tablespoon(s) condensed milk
2 tablespoon(s) fresh cream
4 tablespoons fine sugar
2 tablespoon(s) ghee (clarified butter)
a little cardamom powder, and chopped nuts (like almonds and raisins).

Heat ghee (clarified butter) on medium level in a pan till hot. Add grated carrots and mix well. Fry the carrots for about 10 minutes or till they are cooked.
Mix milk, sugar and condensed milk (replace condensed milk with 4 tablespoons khoya, if available). Add to carrots and keep on low heat uncovered for about 7 minutes, stirring periodically.
Dot with fresh cream. Sprinkle cardamom powder and chopped nuts. Keep on low heat for about 2 minute(s).
Serve hot or cold.

Method
Cook the carrots in the milk in an open pan(low flame),
with constant stirring.
You can also put the carrots and the milk in a microwaveable
dish and cook it in the microwave on high heat for about
20 minutes.
When the carrots are done, take them out and drain any excess milk.
Add the milk powder(mava), the ricotta cheese and the sugar
to the carrots.
Heat the ghee in a frying pan, add the carrot paste and
keep on high flame until the carrot paste loses the milky
texture and becomes golden brown and the sugar is
tatally dissolved.
Add the raisins, cardamoms, powdered pistas and the almonds.
Heat through and serve either hot or cold with cream
on the side.
