Steps

30 mins

1

In a pan take 1.5 tablespoon of desi ghee, add half a cup of Nestle milk powder and keep mixing the two on low flame...as you mix you will have lumps form but that's ok. When milk powder slightly becomes brown close to the gas
2

When you close the gas the milk powder will become browner in colour as it continues to cook in a hot pan.
3

Now first press those lumps of milk powder with a spoon and add 2 tablespoon of milk to the mixture...start the gas and you will see ghee separating.. remove that ghee and add 3 Teaspoons of powdered sugar.
4

Keep mixing this mixture on low flame till it leaves the sides
5

Take out this mixture on a plate, let it cool and then give peda shape. Coat it with powdered sugar.
6

Please note you don't overcook or burn the milk powder. Ensure you have no lumps in the milk powder or else it will become chewy.
Be quick and keep everything ready. Instead of powder sugar you can also use khadi shakar and powder that.

Financial writer by profession but Love to cook innovative dishes with lesser ingredients. My aim is everyone should fall in love with Cooking and sharing recipes with easily available ingredients and can be cooked in less time. I am strong believer of eat local and eat everything. Enjoy all the seasonal fruits and vegetables. Cook the way your mom, grand mom used to cook and most importantly enjoy your meals rather than getting worries about calories and weight. Enjoy the home cooked meals more and exercise more to get perfect glowing skin, good hair and good health. It also the secret to long healthy life.
