Hi folks, I'm Deepika
Sharma once again from Bangalore with a quick and easy recipe for
the Mathura pedas which everyone is fond of. If you have all the
ingredients at hand this takes hardly 15 minutes to make. I got this
recipe from a friend of mine Hema when I had just got married and
moved to Waterloo, NY and it has been handy and liked by all of our
family and friends since. The best part is it's so easy to make, you
just can't go wrong.
Also this recipe could be made on the gas stove, the difference being
to put the vessel on low heat and keep stirring it so that the mix
does not burn.]
Please get back to me if you have any questions or just to let me know
if you have liked my recipe.

Quick Mathura Pedas
Ingredients
Milk powder 14 ounces
1can condensed milk
1 stick (or 1/2 cup) unsalted butter
Cardamom seeds
Method
- Put the butter in a microwave dish and heat it in a microwave till it melts.
- Now put the milk powder and the condensed milk and mix.
- Set the timer for approx 8 to 10 minutes.
- Keep your eye on the mix as it will come to a boil, once it does take it out stir it and again put it back, keep doing this till the mix becomes reddish in color. If you wish you could now, put some crushed cardamom in it to flavor it.
- Now let it cool a little so that you do not burn your hands, apply a little butter or ghee to your hands and make a small ball from the mix, flatten it a little.
- Put 2 or 3 cardamom seeds on top and apply a little pressure on it with your thumb or forefinger to make a small indentation.
- Set these pedas on a greased thali to cool down.
- Now enjoy them.
P.S Instead of green cardamom , Black cardamom seeds could be used or Almonds to garnish the pedas
