About Gajar Halwa

Gajar halwa is a pudding of grated carrots cooked slowly in milk, sugar and ghee, finished with cardamom and nuts. It is a winter favorite in North India, when red Delhi carrots are in season.

Regional versions

Some versions add khoya, milk solids, for extra richness. It is often served warm, sometimes with vanilla ice cream.

What to order with it

Have it warm after dinner in winter. Sweet shops sell it by weight.

How this list is made

We started from public records, OpenStreetMap and Overture Maps, searched town by town for places those records miss, and read each restaurant's menu from its website or online ordering page. Places whose opening hours we could not confirm recently say so, and we check them again every month. Dishes marked "on the menu" come from the restaurant's own website or ordering page. "Usually served" is our best guess from the style of the place, so call ahead if you have your heart set on it.

Missing a place, a dish or a closure? Tell us and we will fix it.
