Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 3 Orange (Big and Sweet)
- 1 Litre Full cream Milk
- 200g Condensed Milk
- 100g Sugar
Instructions
- Heat milk and water in a large pot over low heat until it begins to boil.
- Allow the milk to simmer for approximately 20 minutes, or until it has reduced to one-third of its original volume.
- Add condensed milk and stir well, cooking for an additional 6-7 minutes.
- Next, add sugar and continue cooking until it completely dissolves.
- Be sure to stir occasionally to prevent burning.
- Turn off the heat and let the thickened milk cool to room temperature.
- Peel the orange and separate the segments, removing any seeds and discarding the peel.
- While separating the segments, gently squeeze a few to release their juice.
- Lightly mix the orange juice and segments into the thickened milk.
- Once thoroughly combined, either serve the Komola Kheer at room temperature or chill for an hour before serving.
Notes
- Use only sweet oranges.
- Avoid excessive mixing of the oranges and milk to prevent the milk from curdling.
- I prefer not to include additional flavorings in this dessert since the orange alone provides ample flavor.
- Instead of using condensed milk, you can also opt for khowa.
