CARROT CUSTARD PUDDING …sweetened with Jaggery/ಕ್ಯಾರಟ್ ಕಸ್ಟರ್ಡ್ ಪುಡ್ಡಿಂಗ್ …ಬೆಲ್ಲದ ಸಿಹಿಯೊಟ್ಟಿಗೆ

Carrot pudding is a simple, yummy desert which is nutritious too. Very simple to make recipe taken from one of my old written recipe book.
This is a healthy recipe for children and grown ups. I have used raw cane sugar today, but I always put powdered jaggery in this but its completely your choice to use any sugar, as just there will be a slight change in the color of the desert.
It can be served as both hot & cold, just you need to keep it in the refrigerator for 1 hour or so… to serve it chilled
