  2. When illaichi splutters to it add grated carrots and stir it nice for 5 minutes.
  3. Then after stirring keep the kadai covered for 5 more minutes. Let the carrot cook in its own juice.
  4. Then open the steel cover and to it add a bowl of homemade malai and stir again nicely for 2 minutes so the malai mix with the carrots.
  5. After the malai has mixed add a bowl of milk and stir again for 2 to 3 minutes.
