Ingredients
3 cups shredded pumpkin
1 cup of whole milk
1 cup jaggery
2 tbsp ghee
Some cashews and almonds
4-5 cardamoms
Preparation
Shred the pumpkin and keep it aside.
Powder the jaggery if it is hard or shred if it is soft and keep it aside.
Open the cardamom pods, discard the skin and powder the seeds.
Procedure
Fry Almonds and cashews in 1 tbsp of ghee and keep them aside.
To the same ghee add shredded pumpkin and fry for 2 minutes.
Add 1 cup of milk, give a mix and cover it and cook for 5 minutes on low heat.
After 5 minutes notice all the milk has evaporated and the pumpkin is cooked. If not cook with some more milk.
When the pumpkin is cooked, add jaggery and mix it well.
And you will notice that it is getting thin after adding jaggery.
Keep stirring and it gets thick again.
Now add ghee and cardamom powder and mix them well.
Add the fried nuts.
Helpful Tips
Jaggery tastes much better than white sugar.
Do not use any artificial colors. Pumpkin has its own bright color.
Health Information
Pumpkin is a good source of fiber and Vitamin A.
It also contains the other vitamins and minerals.
The bright orange color represents the presence of carotene.
Pumpkin is an anti oxidant rich food which helps to prevent heart disease and cancer.
The flavonoid zeaxanthin protects retina of the eye from macular degeneration.
White sugar damages DNA eventually. So substitute with jaggery or any other natural sweeteners where ever you can.
Even though it is made with jaggery we have to go moderately with sweets.
