I wanted to make carrot halwa using condensed milk for very long time. I have tasted this before, and it was delicious..
I have already shared a basic carrot halwa recipe in this blog. This is a special version and it was yum. I loved it more that that orginal version. Since this has condensed milk it has a milky khoya taste to them.
Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..

Delicious halwa 🙂
Aarthi you can use Kova. It will give more taste than condensed milk.
Hi Aarthi
Can I use more sugar and milk to substitute condensed milk?? is condensed milk compulsory?

Hi Aarthi ! Dish looks wonderful will definitely try it ! Once doubt can we completely use condensed milk instead of little bit of sugar ? Will the taste differ ?
I made the carrot halwa and it turned out super yum!! Thank you so much for the recipe.
Much love from Sri Lanka❤️
