Thirattipal (Milk Sweet)


By BON APPETIT (Visit website)



Thirattipal or palgova is a very rich and delightful preparation using milk and sugar. It is a time-consuming peparation no-doubt , but the end result is something to savour for a long time. A few of my friends use curd to coagulate the milk and then proceed making the sweet ,to each his own!
My hubby's granny who was holidaying with us last month is an expert in making this sweet. Before she left for her home, I set out making the sweet under her watchful eyes with adequate help from my mom-in-law (who joined us for a few days) and a whole lot of help from my hubby (to dig in) !!
The sweet can also be made in microwave, which is a lot easier and i heard tasty too- am yet to try that out, will keep you posted ! The dish requires a very few ingredients - milk, sugar,elaichii (optional) but it requires your full attention during the making; else the bottom of the pan may get browned n scorched giving the sweet a burnt taste. We made a big batch of the sweet using 3 litres of milk - i have given the recipe for 1 litre. You can garnish with nuts for the added effect !



 Other ways you can enjoy this scrumptious sweet -- sandwich spread, stuffing for rotis or even pizza topping !




What goes:-
Milk - 1 litreSugar - 175 gm -to tasteCardamom - optionalNuts - Pistachios/Almonds (for garnish/optional)
How:-
Use a thick bottomed pan for making the sweet. Pour the milk and bring it to a boil. Now bring the flame to low/middle and allow it to simmer. Let the quantity reduce to half of the inital quantity. Now add sugar and and mix well.




Let the mix continue to simmer till it thickens. It takes a good 30-40 minutes.Give it a stir every now and then, to prevent browning of the pan bottom. Also scraping off the sides once in a while adds to the thickening and intensifies the taste.




You can see how the milk and sugar change colour and starts to thicken !Once the mix reaches a halwa like consistency, add elaichi if required and then switch off flame. 




The sweet is ready for devouring !
