One of our reader had suggested an alternative to Khoya.
Hi
This is Hemal from USA (hemali@hotmail.com). I have a suggestion for
all those who stay way from India and have difficulty in trying to find/
make khoya. You could try using Heavy Cream which is available at all
the grocery stores. I tried using it in Carrot Halwa and the result was
execellent like that which we make back home in India (made with Desi
Ghee was my husband comment) Well you could try that out too.

I Love you recipe pages. I have tried a lot of your recipes and
each one of them has come out delicious. I live in the US and it is
difficult to find Khoya here. Can you give us a recipe for it or suggest
alernatives for it in recipes that need khoya. I will really like that.
Thanx.

Recently, the recipe for KAJU BARFI
mentioned KHOYA...Could you please
tell me what KHOYA is?
What is it called in English and whether it is available in the US?

Hi! I and my husband, we both are graduate students at Brown
university, USA. I have been following your recipes since the
day you started writing this column.
I was esp. happy to see the simple recipe for kaju barfi today.
I have a small question. I don't know where I'll be able to
get khoya over here. So, could you please tell me how can I
make it at home. Also, how much quantity of milk would make
how much khoya?

I read the recepie for kaju burfi.
I know in India, we can get readymade
khoya. Can we get some kind of substitution
for khoya?

How can you get khoya?

is easily available here in US or can you give a simple method of making
khoya.
