BM #77 Week 1 Day 1 -
This week I have chosen to showcase some vegan desserts which have stolen our hearts. This halwa with beetroot, almonds and coconut milk is a super fast and super delicious and a healthy halwa.
Ingredients -
Beetroot , grated 3 cups
Coconut, grated 1/2 cup
Almonds, coarsely crushed 3 Tbsp
Almonds, blanched and peeled 1/4 cup + more for garnish
Jaggery Powdered 3/4 cup
Olive Oil 1 tsp
Cardamom Powder 1 tsp
Method Of Preparation -
Using a box grater's big teeth, grate the beetroot and set aside.
Make a fine paste of the grated coconut and blanched almonds adding as much water as needed. I got a cup of this coconut-almond milk.
In a heated non stick pan, add olive oil and saute the grated beetroot for about 4-5 minutes. Sprinkle the coarsely crushed almonds. Mix well
Add in the coconut-almond milk and powdered jaggery. Mix well and reduce the heat to low-medium. Sprinkle cardamom powder.
Keep stirring until it all comes together as single mass.
Remove from heat. Garnish with blanched almond slivers and serve.
Preparation Time 32 minutes
Serves 4-5

Vegan halwa sounds I interesting , I have made beetroot halwa but not vegan . Definitely a healthy and delicious halwa.
I usually make this with milk but the vegan version with coconut milk sounds so flavourful..
Vegan beetroot halwa rocks, adding coconut milk makes this halwa more flavourful na.Loving it.
Halwa looks so sinful Harini, so many healthy ingredients have gone into this..great job!
Wow beetroot halwa looks soo yummy
Looking at this I think I might try a version of beetroot barfi.. The blogging world always amazes with such lovely and innovative ideas..
That's quite a different take on halwa. I might have expected coconut milk, but not ground coconuts. Super!!
That is such a delicious looking dessert. Will have to try it out some time.
