Mishti Doi

Mishti Doi Recipe

 

Ingredients:-

Milk -2 cups

Curd (dahi) -3 to 4 tbsp

Sugar -1 cup

Earthen pots (handi) for dahi-making

How to make Mishti Doi:-

• In a kadhai, boil the milk on a medium flame till it has reduced to half its original volume.
• Keep stirring intermittently to prevent the milk from scorching. Once done, let the milk cool to a lukewarm temperature.
• Meanwhile, put the sugar in a separate pan and heat it over a low flame till it has melted. Allow the sugar to turn brown in color.
• Next, add the reduced milk to this caramelized sugar and mix well till they have blended.
• Then, add some dahi to the mixture (not in boiling milk) and stir gently to mix.
• Next, pour this mix into a handi and keep in a warm, dark spot for the Mishti Doi to set.
• When the Mishti Doi has set (it takes a few hours), refrigerate it for a few hours and then serve.
