QUICK KHARWAS

The word kharwas itself just melts your heart and makes your mouth water does'nt it ? There have been times when as a child I used to wait for my aai to make kharwas, and the day it was made we used to forget about our meal and my baba and me used to start with dessert and just dig into it. (Dive into the kharwas is a proper word in fact)

Kharwas is made from the first milk or colostrum from the cow or buffalo after she delivers her calf. It is extremly rich in protein and vitamin A.

But now a days there are very rare occasions when you get this milk and so even rare occasions when we make this delicacy. So here you will find and extremely quick and easy method of making kharwas, and guess what there is no need of colostrum. You can make it with the milk readily available at home.

Condensed milk
1 cup
