kesar peda recipe | instant peda recipe | peda with mawa / Khoya with step by step photos and video recipe. simple and easy sweet recipe with mawa and sugar without condensed milk.

kesar peda is one of the easy and most favorite sweet by everyone. There are some important things to note while making peda which should taste very similar to bakery / sweet shop ones. 

kesar peda recipe
  • the peda should not be very very smooth unlike halwa. it has to be slightly granulated that you can enjoy peda as like in sweets shops. 
  • the peda have to stay in shape rather than being slouch that is going shapeless before you eat them. 

to get the first point right, we have to add the powdered sugar only after the mawa/khoya is cooled down completely else the sugar will melt completely and give a super smooth texture. if you prefer it that way, you can add sugar straight on to the pan. to achieve the second point we refrigerate the peda once its done until it is firm enough and then serve ! it tends to thicken once cooled.
