Beet and Carrot Halwa

Instead of making Halwa exclusively out of carrot or beetroot making them combined gives good colour and yields  more quantity . Moreover grating of beetroot is easier and just two large size beets yield more stuff. Adding some Khoya / Khoa  gives a mild chewy texture and makes it delightful...
