    Carrot kheer or carrot payasam with just 3 main ingredients available at home. Full video, step by step pictures post.

    Around 12 year's back, same day I decided to just start a blog all of a sudden having spoken about it with my friend Sangeeta for few days. Never had any big plans at that time that I would come this far 🤩 Right from my friend, each and everyone of you have a big part in this path and forever grateful for this! Thank you so much for always being there 🤗🥰

    carrot-kheer

    So celebrating 13th Blog Anniversary by sharing with you carrot kheer. This is the first time I am adding roasted almonds in such dessert (kheer/ payasam). Just loved the flavour roasted almond lends to the sweet 🧡 I was thinking throughout while making whether or not I should add something like a clove or cinnamon for flavour. But glad I did not.

    Because it would have overpowered this subtle and natural flavour of ghee roasted badam and carrot combo. And lovely colour that carrot adds to this dessert without anything. So make it simple just like this without any saffron or anything. Check out my other dessert recipes.

    Let's jump to the recipe right away.

      This recipe showed up on my Google News feed. Lucky for me! Happy anniversary. I hope to try this recipe soon. Any difference if the carrots are grated thick? My food processor grates slightly thicker.

        Oh 🙂 Thank you so much!
        Just for homogenous texture. If you don't mind yes you can use as such. Or you can blend too.
