Step 1: Heat Ghee [00:20]

Heat five tablespoons of ghee in a pan.

Add a kilo of grated carrots to the pan and sauté for a few minutes until they turn a beautiful orange color.

Pour in a liter of full fat milk with cream and cook the carrots in the milk, stirring occasionally for about 30-40 minutes until the milk reduces.

Once the milk has reduced, add ten tablespoons of sugar (approximately 3/4 of a cup) to the mixture.

Incorporate soaked and chopped dry fruits: almonds, cashew nuts, raisins, and pistachios.
