So let's make it easily at home, which will be ready quickly. For much faster option, in this recipe the Khoa is prepared with full cream milk powder. This homemade khoya is much better than the store brought ones. It has all the richness & goodness of milk. No additives or preservatives are added.

- Don't add all the milk powder together. Add in the small batches, else the mixture will have too many lumps.
- For good quality Mawa or Khoya, stir the mixture continuously on low flame.
