Notes
Any choice of nuts and dry fruits can be roasted in ghee and garnished at the end.
For boiling carrot it can also be pressure cooked upto 3 whistles. I am not in favor of Pressure cooking as i feel the nutrients of the carrot are lost in pressure cooking. Hence i prefer open cooking in a pot like the way i have shared the recipe here.
If pressure cooking Chopped carrot then cook only for 1 whistle.
