Directions: Kheer-potol/parwal Or Potol Mishti Recipe
- STEP 1.For the Filling: First Up, wash & peel off the skins of the potol entirely, not a single strand should be left out 👇🏻
- STEP 2.Now, with a sharp pointed knife, make a single horizontal slit in each one of them & with the help of a spoon, gently take out its seeds & rest all the stuffs from inside it so that, we can later on, fill in the same with the Mawa filling easily 👇🏻
- STEP 3.Once that’s done, in a large saucepan add in sufficient water(RT), so that all the Potol are well immersed in it while cooking-
- STEP 4.Now, boil the Potol in that water, add in it the baking powder, mix well (this is done to keep the green colours of the fresh potol intact (since, I don’t prefer using any artificial colour mostly) 👇🏻
- STEP 5.Keeping the flame to the medium-low cook the Potol for about 7-8 mins time, then straining well transfer them to a separate plate-
- STEP 6.While the Potol are cooking, in the interim:
- STEP 7.We need to prepare the sugar syrup with the aforementioned ingredients until everything’s nicely dissolved in it
- STEP 8.Then, add in the parboiled Potol into it & keeping the flame in moderation, we need to boil the Potol along with this sugar syrup nicely for another 10-12 mins time, covering with a lid
- STEP 9.Once done: Again, gently strain the Potol pieces on a large plate & allow them to cool down completely-
- STEP 10.While, it’s cooling down: We need to prepare its Mawa filling now
- STEP 11.For that, in a frying pan- Add in the ghee & then the Mawa & stir continuously until nicely mixed & blended together & well combined- Now, add in the milk to it & continue stirring- add in the sugar(if using, I didn’t use sugar separately herein) & milkmaid both- Mix everything well together until nicely combined and well blended- Add in the finely chopped nuts & the cardamom powder & finally give it all a very good mix
- STEP 12.At the end, in goes the milk powder, mix well until well blended- Continue to cook it until, the mixture now forms like a smooth dough like mixture & leaves the pan on its own- Turning off the flame, transfer it to a separate plate & let it cool down completely- Now, once both the Mawa filling & the Potol pieces are cooled down well- Take a big spoonful of the filling into your hands & roll it into the cooked Potol- Stuff each one of the Potol well enough until they puff up nicely
- STEP 13.Gently, seal the edges of the Potol post filling with the Mawa stuffing but keep the middle portion slightly open to look nice- Garnish it your own way- I’ve done it with some more finely chopped nuts, edible silver leaves & roughly chopped Cranberries- Plate it out now & directly place it to your Dining Table platters & it’s absolutely ready to be grabbed in no time now
- STEP 14.Simply relish this DELISH now, with your family, friends & known quarters in this ongoing festivities
- STEP 15.ENJOY 💁♀️🤤😉
