Recipe - North Indian Carrot Pudding

250 g Carrots
4 cup Milk
Pinch of saffron strands
One half cup White sugar
2 tablespoon Ground almonds
1/8 teaspoon Ground cardamom

Wash and scrape the carrots and grate them coarsley. In a large heavy
saucepan bring milk to the boil, then take out 2 tablespoons of the boling
milk and soak the saffron strands in it.

Add the grated carrots to boiling milk and cook until carrots are soft and
the mixture thickens. This takes about 30 minutes or longer. Add sugar,
almonds, ground cardamom and the saffron soaking in the milk. Stir until
sugar dissolves, then cook, stirring occasionally until the mixture is the
consistency of a creamy rice pudding.

Serve warm or cold.
