PERFORMANCE

1. Sprinkle the carrots with salt and set aside for half an hour.
2. Pour sugar into a medium-sized frying pan over low heat and pour vinegar over it.
3. Heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves.
4. Add carrots, ginger, garlic, chili, cumin and garam masala and mix.
5. Boil the carrots and spices over medium heat for about 30 minutes.
6. Pour in the raisins and sesame and continue cooking until the carrot is slightly translucent, shiny and dry. If the liquid evaporates too quickly and the carrot is not ready yet, you can pour hot water.
