Re: Khoya
Shay, I’ve always bought it from the Indian store. Nanak brand. Check in the freezer, next to the paneer.
I don’t know how to make it

Re: Khoya
curdled the mlk with the help of lime juice,keep it on low-medium flame till u get desired consistency of khoya.
Re: Khoya
alright i will definitely ask her once she gets off the phone!
Re: Khoya
I have tried this method once . It worked . Then they started selling Nanak brand khoya so I never made it again.
I bought a quart of half and half , I put the smallest package of cottage cheese in it then heated it up in a pot , when the milk got precipitated I put a paper towel in a sieve and transfered all the content of this pot in this sieve with paper towel , when the watery part of this precipitated milk got drained out, I put this stuff in that pot and cooked it till desired consistency was achieved.
I will not bet my life on this method though ,as I tried it once only, and it was a successful experiment in my case.
Re: Khoya
my mom said shay that you just cook the full fat cream milk in a large pan for a long long time until it thickens.. this is the desi way of making it.... punjabi way :)
Re: Khoya
People , people , thickened milk is not khoya, khoya is made by precipitating milk then taking the water out then cooking it .
Urdu main precipitated milk is called phata hoo-a doodh.
Re: Khoya

Burfi is made this way , your mom and you are right .
But if you know what qalaqand is that is made of khoya , habshi halwa is made of khoya , some laddoo have khoya in it , gajar ka halwa has khoya in it , some poeple put khoya in zarda , so the khoya for these products is made in different way , these products cannot be made with thickened milk. You will not see the chunks of khoya which you see in them.
Re: Khoya
ok so barfi is made this way… i will go back to mom on this issue..
sorry mirch bhai.
Re: Khoya
You can make it from ricota cheese... spread it on a baking sheet and bake it till water evaporates and it it all crumbly like khoya...
Re: Khoya
Thank you all so much, I didn’t find it at the indian store 
they don’t carry it. Will try everyone’s khoya recipe one by one
Re: Khoya
The thing where ppl are saying to add lemon juice to milk and make it phata hua dhoodh is not khoya. Its paneer. Khoya is made by cooking whole milk for a long long time till it almost dries up. I have never tried it but my phopo makes it this way and uses in halwas.
shay, depending on what you are making, maybe you could reduce teh amount of sugar and add some crumbled barfi or kalakand to it instead of direct khoya? My abbu does that for halwas sometimes.
