Instant Kharvas / Milk Pudding

We had a lovely long weekend....just did not realize how time flew... Pooja & Prashant our family friends visited us from Mumbai.  They  visited us for the first time and I wanted it to be a special time spend with us. 

I made Aloo Tikki, Fish Fry, Crispy Prawns & Chicken Tikka which we all relished... after eating the starters, we could eat very little of the main course. After dinner, we all went down in the society campus to have a stroll and enjoyed the cool breeze.

It was now time to enjoy the desserts... I had made Biscuit pudding and Kharvas...It was super delicious... they just got over in minutes!

Indira, my colleague from Chennai had visited our Pune Office and she had come home for dinner last week.. I had made Kharvas for the first time and she enjoyed the dessert!  

After getting wonderful feedback from her on this dessert, I decided to make this again for my guests who visited me over the weekend too!

Kharvas - soft, sweet and delicate white cakes /pudding is a Maharashtrian delicacy.  They just melt in the mouth.  This is normally made with colostrum milk. But since this milk is not available always... this is a quick recipe to enjoy this dessert any day and any time!

It's now time to jot down the recipe!

Ingredients :

Milk - 1 cup

Thick Curd / Yoghurt - 1 cup

Condensed Milk - 1 cup

Corn Flour - 2 tsp

Nutmeg Powder

Method :

In a bowl take condensed milk and mix the corn flour well.  To this add the milk and then the curd and mix well together.  In a cooker or Idli steamer put  water and allow it to boil.  Now transfer the mixture in the steel container and steam this for 35 to 40 minutes on low flame.  Allow it to cool... Garnish with Nutmeg Powder, Safrron strands and cool in the fridge and allow it to set for few hours.  The divine dessert is ready to serve!
