Beetroot halwa - beetroot pudding

This post is preety offbeat to what I generally write. Yeah its a recipe here! Actually had some beetroots at home and the toddler at home and also the hubby dear, doesn't like them. So i had no option but try out something so as to make both of them have beets!

Well, let me just jot down what I did. The simple recipe is as follows -
Ingredients...

  • Beetroots 250gms
  • Sugar 2 cups
  • Milk 1/2 litre
  • Almond 9 -10 
  • Raisins as required
  • Clarified butter or oil 2 table spoon


  1. Wash the beetroots properly and remove the skin. Cut them into slices and pressure cook them for 3 or 4 whistles.
  2. Once done, let the pressure cooker cool.
  3. Smash the beetroots into semi paste.
  4. In the mean time, heat some clarified butter or oil in a wok. Add the semi paste beets.
  5. Fry for couple of minutes
  6. Add milk and let it cookat the least temperature.
  7. Add some grounded almonds
  8. Add sugar
  9. Keep frying for some 20 minutes or till the milk almost dries up.
  10. Add raisins
  11. Serve hot.
Turned out really tasty. My hubby and kiddo had it with much interest. Mission accomplished! :)
