Notes
- The tricky part is knowing the right consistency when the peda dough is done cooking and ready to be shaped when cooking in the microwave.
- Using more condensed milk can make the dough sticky, and using more milk powder can make it a bit dry and with cracks when rolling into the desired shape.
- The tell-tale sign that the dough is ready to be shaped into peda is when a drop of dough can be easily rolled into a small ball without sticking.
- Cool the dough on a flat plate and take a small scoop from the edges and start rolling it into balls when you can start handling the heat. Apply some ghee in your inner palm so that the dough does not stick to your hands.
- When microwaving, after the second minute, remember to always check in 30-second intervals and stir well with a spatula so that it cooks evenly and does not burn.
