Mawa / Khoya

Mawa / Khoya

This is the most important ingredient when thinking about your favorite dessert.In India it's obviously available in market so no need to cook but when you are outside your home country and trying for Mawa / Khoya then this recipe would adjust you with your limitation.


Ingredients:

    Ricotta Cheese               1 Cup (15oz) as available in market
    Ghee/Purified Butter      2-3 Teaspoon


Direction:

   Ricotta cheese is kind of Mawa but it contains some water which require to be evaporate either by cooking into microwave or over gas /electric burner.

I am going to use the gas burner for this recipe.In a non-stick container add ghee and let it cook on medium flame until it melts, add ricotta cheese and keep on stirring until it melts like thick mixture.

Stir continuous so that it would not stick to the bottom of the pan. Exact 40 minutes require to stir to convert it into Mawa.

Mawa can be used to make Gulab Jamun, Pedha, Kaju Katli, Badam Barfi, Gujiya, Gajar ka Halwa and many more sweet dishes.

Hope you enjoy the joy of cooking mawa at home.
