1. Wash and remove the top and tail portion of beet roots and pressure cook them whole.

 4. Heat 1 tbsp of ghee in a thick bottomed pan, add the cooked and grated beet root, and fry till it gives out a pleasant aroma.

5. Add the condensed milk and cook till the vegetable and milk blend and become thicker.

I used milkmaid condensed milk but
you can also make condensed milk at home. 

After adding the condensed milk

6. Add sugar and cook till all the sugar syrup is absorbed.

7. Add the remaining ghee and cook till the halwa leaves the sides of the pan.
8. Mix in the cardamom powder and decorate with the chopped nuts.

I've never tasted beetroot halwa before and this dish turned out to be absolutely delicious. Vinod asked for 2nd and 3rd helpings :)
