Khoya or mawa is a solidified condensed milk. Milk is boiled down till most of the moisture is evaporated and all left is a thick yellowish solid mass. It takes around 3 - 4 hours to reduce milk from 4 - 5 cups. Khoya is a very versatile substance which can be used to make both savory and sweet dishes (Khoya Puri, Gulab Jamun, etc…). A specially made tool is available in India which when placed in milk avoids scorching. Ceramic jar cap can also be used in this way.
Makes: around 1/2 Cup of Khoya
