Recipe adapted from :Jeyshri’s Kitchen

Ingredients:
Milk powder-1.5 cups
Condensed milk-1tin,400g
Ghee-3 tbsp+ 2-3 tsp to grease your palms
Saffron-1 pinch soaked in a tsp of milk
Milk masala powder-1 tsp to sprinkle(optional)(I used Everest)

Method:

Mix milk powder and condensed milk and remove all the lumps.
It should be like a thick batter.
Keep it on low flame,add saffron milk,pinch of milk masala powder and keep on stirring until it forms a soft ball and leaves the sides of the pan.
Please don’t wait until the mixture turns too dry as the peda’s might turn hard.
Just switch off the flame once it leaves the sides of the pan.
This will take about 7-8 minutes.
Off the flame and transfer the mixture in a bowl and let it cool for sometime.
Once it is warm,grease your palms with ghee and make pedas and arrange it on a plate.
After sometime transfer it in a container and store it .
