what is mawa?
ReplyDeletewhat is mawa????
ReplyDeleteMawa is made from whole milk- it is boiled for a long time (typically a couple of hours +). It can be refrigerated after making, and is used as a base for many Indian/Bangla sweets. It is also called Khoya. Here is a link to a video on how to make:

can it be substituted with condensed milk?
ReplyDeleteI have seen someone making the same dessert with condensed milk.
DeleteThank you for posting this! I did not have khoya so I put in 1 tblsp Half-and-Half cream. I did not use nutmeg or saffron either, and instead of ghee I used the same quantity of butter. I just made it and it turned out perfectly.
