Gajrela is a unique winter dish, a carrot-based dessert that looks like a pudding and is served worldwide where desi people like Indians and Pakistanis exist. Gajrela dish Bradford is a famous dish and is served cold.
There is another dish called the gajar ka halwa, which is slightly different from Gajrela. Halwa gets its name from ‘haul’ in Arabic, which means sweet. It is served hot and does not include milk. So, it does not have a pudding-like structure and is prepared with ghee.
How are the two Different from Each other?
In Pakistan, Gajrela is known as the kheer of carrots, whereas, in India, Gajrela is called gajjar ka halwa. Gajrela is also a dessert, separate from the Pakistani Gajrela. It is prepared by tenderizing the carrots in milk.
They are then fried in ghee until soft and mushy, and sugar is added for sweetness. Lots of nuts are added to the halwa, and then it is topped with nuts and khoya, also called dried milk. People also like to top it with boiled eggs.
How is it Prepared?
Grating lots of carrots and milk, prepare Gajrela. The ratio of milk to carrots is 2:1. The milk is boiled with a spice called cardamom, giving the Gajrela the cardamom essence. Then the required quantity of rice is boiled till they are perfectly done. The cooked rice and the grated carrots are mixed with the boiled milk until the carrots and rice are well corporate.
A pudding-like structure will be seen, and that is when the sugar is added, and the Gajrela is cooked till thick bubbles start to form; that is when an essence called “kewra” is added, which gives the Gajrela an extra element.
The Gajrela dish Bradford is all topped with the favorite nuts of your choice. Some like to add coconuts and almonds. A special edible silver foil is added; this makes the Gajrela dish Bradford look beautiful and presentable. The dish is then kept in the fridge and cooled down.
