Carrot dry curry

Everybody makes carrot halwa but not many use it to make curries.It is very good and very essential for our health, especially for kids.What better way to make them eat it than a curry with hot rice!!

Grate carrots or cut them into fine small pieces. Take one onion and finely chop them along with green chillies . Take a pan and add a little oil to it. Add cumin seeds,curry leaves, green chillies and then the onions. Saute. Then add the grated carrot, a pinch of salt,a sprinkle of water,cover and cook till the carrot is done. It should not be mushy but dry.( You could even just microwave the carrots and add them to the sauted onions and make it faster). Now add a little fresh grated coconut, a dash of garam masala(optional) and a lot of finely chopped coriander leaves(dhaniya patta). Serve with rice with a dash of ghee.
