sue's picture of a bowl of perfect gajar halwa (here) may or may not have been posted intentionally to torment the rest of us but at least shahpar and i are now hungry. this is the season for it after all. so let's have some recipes: from the simple short-cuts to the hardcore traditional; from the cholesterol-conscious to the decadently ghee-laden.
