PAAL (MILK) CAKE

A tasty, healthy low calorie sweet – no ghee, no oil!

Cooking time – 50-60 minutes

Makes 20 pieces

Ingredients

Whole milk – 1 liter

Sugar – 2 cups

Method

Use a big thick-bottomed vessel – preferably a non-stick vessel.

Boil the milk at high flame, stirring in between.

Continue to heat till the quantity reduces to half.

Lower the flame and continue to stir for another 5 minutes.

Add sugar and continue to stir intermittently till it thickens.

When it leaves the sides of the pan, transfer to a greased plate.

After 5 minutes, make deep cuts with a greased knife to form diamond shaped pieces.

Gently remove the pieces one by one after another 7-10 minutes.

Tips

Use a big vessel so that the milk does not boil over as you cook on high flame.
