Microwave Doodh Pedha

Doodh Pedha is one of the most common sweets found in any sweet mart throughout India. Since it's found easily I think not many people tried making it at home. It's a lengthy process of reducing the milk to a thick consistency and the whole 9 yards. But here I will be presenting a very easy and quick method to make some yummy pedhas. You can make it in 5 minutes YES just 5 minutes as that thought of eating pedhas cross your mind :)

Going straight to the recipe:

Ingredients:

• 1- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk can 
• 2 cups dry milk powder 
• 1/2 stick butter (4tbsp) 
• few pistachios chopped for garnish 
• a few saffron (kesar) strands crushed (optional)

Preparation:

• Melt the butter in a small bowl. 
• Add condensed milk and milk powder slowly and mix everything properly. 
• Microwave the mixture for 3 minutes, stirring the mixture thoroughly after every minute. (very important step :)*)
• Let the mixture cool down a little bit, then roll into small disc-shaped pedhas and garnish with chopped pistachios. 
• You can decorate it the way you like, use your imagination. I pressed our George Washington quarter coin on top and added pistachios...you can also add crushed kesar on top.

njoY!! happY cookinG!!

Notes:* The setting may differ a little from microwave to microwave, you have to mix the pedha mixture after every single minute. When you finish that 1 minute of heating in microwave, mixture will look porous and that means you are doing it right :)
