Dharwad Pheda


Being far away from India is not that easy when it comes to food. It is hard to find some specific food delicacies here which are originally from India. Dharwad pheda is one among them which is my all time favorite and finally I am here with the recipe. It tasted almost like Dharwad pheda and easy to make too.
Indgredients-
  • Ricotta Cheese- 1 cup
  • Milk Powder- 1.5 cup
  • Milk- 1/2 cup
  • Dark Brown sugar/Jaggery - 1/2 cup
  • Ghee - 3-4 Tsp
  • Cardamom powder
  • Powdered sugar to roll


Method-

-Take a non-stick pan and fry the ricotta cheese till it gets slightly brownish.
-Then add Milk and Milk powder. Stir and mix well.
-Now add Ghee and the brown sugar (i am not sure about indian jaggery cos, i tried it with the brown sugar which we get in American stores) and stir well until the mixture leaves the pan.
-Turn off the heat and keep the mixture aside till it gets cool.
- Now roll it to make into small balls and roll them to coat with powdered sugar.

In the above pic phedas made with half each of light brown sugar and sugar and in below pic phedas made with just dark brown sugar and it tasted exactly like Dharwad phedas.
