[sagatbalrog]

[georgiegirl5542684]

this is more difficult and time consuming than the traditional.. dislike very much

[TheYaom]

oh wow looks nice... not a diet recipe though lol

[Numkeenkhan]

May I please know where you get your bangals from Hetal. They are beautiful Gorg I should say...

[Mahrahia]

I did this the old way and it took hours to do lol

[palasaini81]

why u use microwave all the time.i don't like this respie.

[gayatrikamesh]

Anuja's a South Indian??

[desidol22]

@gayatrikamesh I think that is just the necklace design, or maybe she married a south indian. If im not mistaken, she's punjabi.

[kateDAbomb]

it took around the same time as the authentic one, didn't it?

[mepostingvideos]

@ShowMeTheCurry Too many times in the microwave...isn't it easier to do it on the stove

[MrMukti80]

Its 21st Century Hi Tech Carrot ka Halwa ... Loved It so much =)

[kkondola]

This is the lazy housewife version of carrot halwa. Try the original version if you're not the lazy housewife. You can try both versions (original/lazy housewife), the original version taste better.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@kkondola

We agree that if you have the time to make the authentic version, more power to you. Wonder why you are equating this recipe to a "lazy housewife". There are so many productive women in the work force today who are juggling a career, kids, family, housework (amongst other things). If they are short on time but still want to provide something yummy for their families, we hardly see that as being "lazy". Even housewives have an important role in the family, besides being "lazy".

[MrChannel5news]

@kkondola

You got owned mother chodar dont talk to her like that mother yard gord gord gord

[ummeaaisha]

@kkondola care to tell us where to find the so called original versions? if you're on about the ones from a sweet shop then i'm sorry I prefer the authentic home-made recipe which contains NO Additives, preservatives and colouring not forgetting the unhygienic environment they're made in sometimes... at least we know that we're cooking it with clean hands!!!! so get your facts right before you speak @KKondola!!!!

[anushkagangabison]

hI, you are both beautiful in your sarees. Thanks for sharing. yummy just like both of you.

[anushkagangabison]

[kotugirl]

can you do Ginger nut biscuits please? Love your stuff ;-)

[saiha008]

girls i have a question...i noticed the carrots r probably shreded in a processor so its not as fine..will that make a difference to the texture or taste?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@saiha008

There will be subtle texture differences depending on the size of the shred but the taste should be the same. If the shred is too fine, you may have a bit of a mush on your hands.

[saiha008]

i dont understant why is every 1 up in these girls face..she is the better 1..your was needs more sitting..why dont u make it on the stove...geeeees..this is their way of doing it..if u like it follow it..or move on,insted of sitting and yaking

[whatever3009]

hetal is the more proper one, she makes sure every small detail is mentioned, hetal really makes an effort that nothing is missed, anuja on the other hand is more calm and sometimes struggles with her english but she is very friendly and pleasant, together they are perfect.

[RaniKhasmiri]

Can i use sugar and not condenserd milk? And how do i do it with sugar

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@RaniKhasmiri

This recipe needs the condensed milk because it takes care of the milk and sugar. Without it, you would have to add milk separately and cook it for a very long time.

[thapaashuthapa]

why don't you teach without macro coze i don't have it i will like to make it

[786tazz]

i dont have time to stand for hours on end this is a brillant recipie and good way to put carrots intp my kids best recipie ever thankyou.

[ishratster]

Are u kidding me....you are doing a lot more steps than traditional cooking which is much better....

[robohency81]

hetal and anuja, i think the traditional way is easier, i decided to make it today for my wife, and please tell me what is evaporated milk? and frankly girls your way seems to need more baby sitting than the conventional method. but i will try it definitely, only thing is i have only boiled condensed milk, the brown one, can i use it instead of the usual white condensed milk?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@robohency81

Evaporated milk is milk with about 60% of its moisture removed...cuts down on cooking time. We have never used boiled condensed milk so cannot say for sure if it will work. The one we buy is sweetened.

[onepeopleoneplanet]

im sorry, love you guys, but the whole microwave thing is to much. thanks

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@onepeopleoneplanet

That's ok...like we always say, every recipe is not for every person. Thanks for your support :).

[kxkhan]

NICE TO SEE YOU GIRLS IN A DIFFERENT OUTFIT UNLIKE THE APRONS YOU WEAR. ANY REASON FOR THIS CHANGE? ANYWAY, YOU LOOK LOVELY AND THE DISH WAS TOO YUMMY. THANKS.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@kxkhan Thanks! We were due for a change on our side, too :).

[daoudrafik]

Ladies, whatever happened to the real traditional Indian way of making this delicious Indian dessert? It's too much of a hassle going in & out of the microwave, plus, I'm sure u don't get the same result as u would if u cooked over the flame. I'd rather use my grandma's way of making this sweet. "Show me the curry" but the Indian way. It's good to modify but this one's a bit too much out of the way. It's like baking a cake in a tandoor. I love ur other clips but not this one.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@daoudrafik You are right...slow cooking does have its charms but there are so many people who just don't have the time.  Maybe we will revisit this one again someday -- the traditional way :).

[jigarbrahmbhatt]

Thank you very much. I made carrot halwa for first time in my life and it was very good and tasty.



[jigarbrahmbhatt]

Thank you very much. I made carrot halwa for first time in my life and it was very good and tasty.

[Jigar285]

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@Jigar285 : Similar but the amount of ingredients are different.

[Letsjusb]

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@Ansari00000 : To make 1 can of Condensed Milk: Blend together - 1/3 cup boiling hot water + 2/3 cup sugar + 1 cup dry milk powder + 3 tablespoons butter.

Make as needed and do not store for later use.

[drmgrl11]

@ShowMeTheCurry oh awesomeness! thanks! :) lol

[Ansari00000]

what is Condensed Milk? can we made it at home

[sudhirwise]

growing up i helped my mother make gajjar ka halwa ( as i am sure every good indian boy has ). and i daresay that i am a purist........

nothing like sitting for three hours making the halwa.

in a kadhai ( copper ) and thats after spending one hour of grating the carrot.

yummy mummy

[sonalivenkat]

Can i substitute anything for evaporated milk? I tried to find it in stores but didnt get it.

What is evaporated milk actually? is there any other name to it by which i can try to find it.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@sonalivenkat : Mix 2/3 cup non-fat dry milk (milk powder) and 3/4 cup water to make 1 cup (8oz of Evaporated Milk).

Hope that helps

[desigujjugirl]

how much sugar we need in this halwa ?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@desigujjugirl : the sweetness comes from the condensed milk. No additional sugar is needed.

[desigujjugirl]

@ShowMeTheCurry thank you :))

[morkootan]

Love your videos! This recipe seems too good to be true - can't wait to try it! Could you please create a video on how to make mango kulfi? I have heard that there is a super-easy way to make it with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk and mango pulp, but I dont know the proportions. Thanks!

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@morkootan

We have a video for regular Kulfi, the instant way. You can just add mango pulp to it.

[Xenotropos]

I've never heard of this dish before (I lead a sheltered life :D ) but this sounds wonderful. Carrots are my favorite veg of all.  I'll have to give this a try. Thank you for posting this!

[rangalo99]

wow, new coffee machine !

[madihaaquarius18]

please make chicken 65, plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[oohypnotiq84oo]

i've always been very confused over the term "halwa", esp carrot halwa.

Your end result looks like what i'm most familiar with in restaurants which is a lot drier than i make at home. However, i've seen, what i thought, was carrot halwa compressed into blocks and shapes, cold, soupy, a hot pudding, and even totally mashed. are these all regional and/or personal variations? is there one type that seems to be the most popular in India?

[oohypnotiq84oo]

@oohypnotiq84oo in addition, i've also seen a lot fo indian "halwa" that was also compressed and solid, as opposed to a pudding.

[EckoOwnage]

awww im soo sad that showmethecurry didn't win :(

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@EckoOwnage

Thanks! We are not sad...just amazed with all the love and support of our viewers!

[ocergnairb]

Hetal didn't do like anything in this one. Love the outfits too! And yes, I'm not huge on the whole microwave use either...

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@ocergnairb

Just goes to show you how easy this recipe is :).

[1benwebster]

I was sent to India by our Foreign Department and thought I was going to starve to death because of my reluctance to Indian food. The opposite happened! I Cook Indian several times a week, almost invariously following your instructions. Thank You! Best wishes Jan

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@1benwebster

We so happy you found us and the joy of eating delicious Indian cuisine! Thanks for the feedback.

[Applebeees]

LOOOL anuja ur sooo funny

[aditnarayan]

Your saris are too beautiful!

[cybersphere]

Microwaves will kill you

[saima84]

I love your looks! And the halwa looks AMAZING! And easy :)

[toofar2go1]

how many tyms need to put in micro wave......guess it takes long tym....puting inside again n again

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@toofar2go1

It takes a while to cook but at least you don't have to keep stirring constantly :)

[1benwebster]

@ShowMeTheCurry I was obliged to visit Indian on behalf on our Department of Foreign Service. I thought I was going to starve to death because Indian food seriously repelled me but I was surprised. Everything was deliscious. I am following your recipes. Today butter cheicken as you cook it. Thank you for your most instructing videos. Finnish Diplomat

[TheVittleVlog]

Looks really nice, thanks for sharing!!!

[fyshy1]

You guys look so good! Can you do some bollywood style moves as well?

[RainbowPalette]

[tanvik1]

I have observed that raisins loose its sweetness when soaked in water, doesnt it?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@tanvik1

We have not really noticed that because they are still sweet.

[Thestargazer000]

delicious:D

[HeyyHuda]

[acornchild123]

Ladies please be natural and stop making those funny "hmmmm" noises!

[iamtaychan]

Ya'll look so beautiful

[Juberoos]

How long would you cook this if doing so on the stovetop? I don't have a microwave.

[Thestargazer000]

@Juberoos i think it until the milk evaporates

[hotncool008]

two things absolutely needed. Carrots roasted in the equal amount of ghee and chhene wala ghoya.

[bhinderbrar]

The necklace rubbing the microphone and the jangle of the bangles was annoying. Please be aware of the sound quality of the video.
