Doodh Peda Recipe -- How to make Milk Peda Recipe -- Milk Peda Recipe

Doodh Peda or Milk Peda or Palakova is a very famous Indian sweet. My mother is expert in making this sweet, as my dad offer this to Lord Saibaba on every Thursday. Some times she makes them as small roundels or some times she spreads it on a plate and cut them into small pieces. I am very fond of this sweet and I only consume the most of it. She used to make it with both full fat milk and also with 3% fat milk that is milk with lesser fat. Both are very tasty and smooth. She gave me all the tips and tricks she follows while making it.
It takes longer time to make it. We need to have lot of patience, as we have to stir continuously.

Step by step instructions of how to make Doodh Peda Recipe

1. In a thick bottomed vessel add little water and pour milk. Bring it to boil.

2. Add a small spoon to it, so that milk won't stick to the bottom. Stir it continuously and scrape the edges to combine the cream formed.

3. Once milk reduces to half, add sugar and stir well. Once sugar melts completely add curd. After 5 minutes milk starts curdling.

4. Let it boil till the whey also evaporates completely, stirring continuously. Allow this to cool and add cardamom powder.

5. Knead it with hand or grind it to make smooth dough. Take a small portion of it and shape it between the palms. We can make round shaped or flatten it with fingers and thumb it in the centre.

6. Allow them to dry for half an hour and store them in an airtight container.
