Khoya also known as mava is coagulated milk solids. It forms the base for wide variety of indian sweets like gulab jamun, pedha, gajar ka halwa, gujiya, barfi/fudge etc . Khoya adds a rich creamy texture and perfect taste to the sweets it is been added. Khoya is easily available in market but during festive season as the demand of the milk products increases, there is always a risk of adulteration associated with it. To be on a safer side, i prefer to make khoya at home.
