Go with the Flow

To maximize the functionality of your kitchen, Braam's truly believes in the importance of good placement.  Your major appliances, sink and workspaces should be organized in a way to minimize cross-traffic and create a seamless flow for cooking, baking or entertaining.

MICROWAVE CARROT HALWA

Usually I prefer carrots most for fresh salads! Sometimes I add carrots to Sambar to enhance its taste. But making Halwa with Carrot in a grand feast is a fine idea to attract the guests at your side! Unlike the manual version, this microwave Carrot Halwa needs only a few minutes to cook and serve! Adding milk powder instead of milk is the secret for its delicious taste!! I have learnt this from my close friend years back and am following only this procedure to make a quick carrot halwa since then!!
