Ingredients
Method
For halwa
- In a pressure cooker add one tablespoon ghee

- Add remaining Ghee and stir for another 6-7 minutes or till ghee starts separating
- Add cardamom, mix it and stir for a minute
- Remove Halwa from stove top and let it cool down to room temperature
For whipped cream
- Put mixing bowl and electric mixer attachments in a refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before whisking
- Pour heavy cream and into a mixing bowl. Use a hand mixer to whip the cream until it holds stiff.
- Put whipped cream in a container and store in the fridge until needed for decorating.
For trifle

- Add crushed pistachios
- Pour whipped cream

Notes
-
- Using tender juicy carrot is important for making halwa
- I didn’t use khoya, but if you want to use that add it while adding cardamom powder
- If making vegan whipped cream put coconut milk cans in a refrigerator a night before so that coconut cream will easily separate from the water
- You can add vanilla ice cream instead of whipping cream
- If your whipping cream is not holding stiff, add ice cubes in a large bowl and put your mixing bowl on top of that and start whipping your heavy cream
