Ingredients


Instructions

  • Combine all the ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl.
  • Knead the mixture until it forms a soft dough.
  • Place this mixture in the microwave. Set the cooking time to 2 minutes and start the microwave. Do not step away.
  • After 2 minutes, remove the bowl from the microwave. Remember, the bowl will be hot, so take precautions.
  • Use a spatula to mix the ingredients. Return this mawa mix to the microwave and cook for another 1 minute. Mix it well. From hereon, stop the microwave every 30 seconds and continue stirring the mawa mixture with a spatula. Cook for an additional 1 minute in increments.
  • Do not cook for long, or else it will burn. You may see slightly darker chunks of mawa at the bottom of the bowl. Don't worry, just break those chunks with the spatula, and you should be good.
  • This mawa will have a sticky consistency and therefore is called chikna khoya. Used for making halwa.
