1 can condensed milk (sweetened)
2-3 pods cardamom pods, ground
1/4 cup raisins
pinch of saffron (optional)
almonds, slivered or sliced for garnish
1. Place carrots and condensed milk in slow cooker. Set on low and cook for about 4-6 hours.
2. I added the remaining ingredients about an hour prior to finishing but the cardamom pods could probably be added at the beginning. The carrots have to be added toward the end or at least when it enough of the milk has evaporated so they don't absorb the liquid and become grapes again.
3. Prior to serving, you can leave the cover off the slow cooker or cook lightly in a pan to get a better "halva" consistency.
This turned out GREAT and was so easy. I tried to do all sorts of fancy things with apples, honey, sugar, cream etc previously but this was so quick and turned out well. Let me know what you think. Pistachios might be a nice touch.

Sounds delicious. I will try it. And of course you mean the raisins will become grapes not the carrots! :)
