    Carrot-Kheer-Recipe

    Carrot kheer recipe or carrot payasam with step by step photos. An easy to make dessert or sweet that's perfect for any festive occasion. It tastes awesome either hot or cold. As the carrots are already sweet in nature, it takes very less sugar unlike the other payasam recipes. I wanted to start this New year with a sweet and made this for New year too. Wishing all my friends for a wonderful year ahead.

    I like to eat the kheer rather than drink it like a milkshake of sorts, so I prefer making the payasam like this. Whenever I have to make a quick neivedhyam and hard pressed for time, I make this kheer immediately.

    I always have carrots stocked up in the fridge as my little one loves to eat carrots raw. For making this kheer, the only work it takes is to grate the carrots, so apart from that this kheer gets done in minutes.

    Not just for festive occasions only, but whenever your sweet tooth begs for some attention, pamper yourself with this carrot kheer and the fact that you don't have to spend hours in the kitchen to make this quick and easy dessert comes as a bonus.

    My kids love this kheer very much and I often make this on Sunday mornings to serve this cold after their Biryani lunch. Oh and you have to trust me, it tastes so delicious after the Biryani.
