Gajar Halwa [HIT]
Gajar halwa turned out well but there was stil a lot of scope for
improvement.
For one kg of carrots I added about 2.5 cups of sugar after carrots were
almost cooked in ghee.
It turned out to be a little more sweet than required.
To give it a milky taste I added condensed milk prepared at home.
Milkmaid would have been a better option. For that matter even milk powder
would have been better.
To keep cashew crisp they could have been fried in ghee first.

Kadhi [MISS]
Made "Kadhi" yesterday. I had curds and knew how much of kadhi was required.
Just added that amount of water and added small quantity of "besan".
What went wrong was that the kadhi did not turn out to be of required
consitency. It was not thick and tasty. I forgot to add ginger!
