A time-honoured Indian confectionery hand-crafted with reduced milk, fragrant green cardamom, saffron, and toasted pistachio nuts.
Heat the oil and splutter the cumin seeds.
Saute the onion until golden, then add the ginger-garlic paste and cook for 1 minute.
Add the tomatoes, coriander powder, chili powder, and salt; cook until the tomatoes break down and the oil separates.
Add the carrots with 1/2 cup water, cover, and cook for 10 minutes until just tender.
Uncover and reduce to a light gravy; serve with roti or paratha.
