Milk Sweetmeat Recipe (Perhas)

Milk Sweetmeat Recipe (Perhas)
Ingredients :
5 cups 1 teaspoon 1/2 cup 1/4 teaspoon	Milk Ghee Caster sugar Ground cardamom Few slivered almonds or pistachios
Method : Put the milk into a large, heavy-based frying pan and make khoa. In a small aluminum saucepan, heat the ghee. Add the cooled khoa, which has been crumbled into small pieces. Stir over low heat until khoa is heated through. Add sugar and stir constantly with wooden spoon until sugar is incorporated and mixture is hot. Remove from heat and add spices. Beat until mixture is smooth. Shape into small balls by rolling between palms, then flatten slightly to a disc. Put on a buttered dish to cool and firm. The discs will not get hard, and are not supposed to - a soft fudge-like texture is correct. If liked, decorate each disc as it is made with a few slices of almond or pistachio.
