Dhoodh Peda / Pal Gova - Microwave Version




Ingredients:

Butter - 1 stick - unsalted
Sweetened Condensed Milk - 1 Can - 14oz
Mava Milk  Powder - 4 to 5 cups
Elaichi Powder - 1 spoon (I powder the elaichi seeds and save them in a air tight bottle)
Saffron - 1 pinch
Nuts - Almonds / Raising / Pista

Preparation:

  • Heat the butter for 1 min in a big bowl or glass container, so it can hold the boiling contents towards the end.
  • Add the Mava Milk powder and the Condensed Milk and mix them together slowly.
    • Add 2 cups first, and then slowly add in till it is good enough to stir and looks soft(little thicker than idli batter).
  • Add the saffron and Elaichi powder as well and stir well.
  • Heat them for about 4 minutes, taking it out every minute and stirring it.
  • Let it cool for some time.
  • Make a ball like shape and press with a nut in the middle to make it a little flat.
  • Decorate with different nuts for a set of pedas with Pista/ Badam(can cut this into half) , Raisins.. these coloured nuts, make them look great.
  • Arrange them in a plate or a wide bowl, so they are separate, close them after some time, so that it does get dried out.
Enjoy yummy Dhoodh Peda.
