Khoya Makhana

Hi friends,

Today when I was boiling the milk in the morning, it started curdling. The first thought that came to me was that the milk is a waste and I have to drain it.

Then I thought of putting the precipitate to use. I made Khoya out of it.

The khoya used in this recipe is home made. You can try making this recipe with the Khoya bought from Market.

So let’s get started.
