    This calls for a handful of ingredients and the main one is a can of sweetened condensed milk. And this can be made in under 15 to 20 mins. The cool thing is put every ingredients in a nonstick pan and keep cooking by stirring it. That's it.

    Variations and Different Methods of Making Milk Peda:

    1)Traditional Method:

    The traditional method of making milk peda requires lots of time and patience. You need to keep simmering milk in a large pot till it is reduced. Then add lots of sugar and keep cooking till it forms into a dough like. Small portions are pinched from it and shaped into peda like. In my opinion that is the most loved recipe from my blog. Here is the recipe for making traditional milk peda.

    2)Milk Peda using Sweetened Condensed Milk (Malai Peda):

    This is one of the easiest way of making milk peda, It calls for sweetened condensed milk as the main ingredient. Condensed milk is cooked together with little lemon juice and milk powder till it thickens. Then the mixture is shaped into small pedas.

    This method is also an instant version of making milk peda. It is made using milk powder. I have added saffron to add nice fragrance in the peda. It hardly takes less than 10 mins to make.
