Mathura ka peda is an authentic sweet from Uttar Pradesh that is specially popular in Mathura.

Mathura peda is prepared with khoya, sugar, ghee and cardamom powder.

Once moulded into pedas, they are coated with sugar powder.

You can cook Mathura Lal Peda using 6 ingredients and 12 steps. Here is how you achieve it.

Ingredients of Mathura Lal Peda

1. Prepare 2 litres of full cream milk.

2. You need 200 grams of powdered sugar.

3. It’s 2 tablespoon of Ghee.

4. Prepare 5 of cardamoms powdered.

5. You need 2 drops of Rose essence(optional).

6. You need 2 teaspoon of finely chopped pistachios for the garnish.

When you prepare Mathura Peda remember to fry/roast Mawa as much possible.

The more Mawa is fried/roasted the more its shelf life increases.

Do add little amounts of milk/Ghee from time to time while frying Mawa, this makes frying/roasting for a long time easy.

According to my experience frying Mawa in Ghee is better then frying it in milk.

Mathura Lal Peda instructions

1. Boil the milk in a heavy bottomed deep pan and keep stirring on a medium flame until it becomes thick..

2. Keep scraping the sides of the pan and mix in the boiling milk, until the milk leaves the pan and a lump of mava/khoya is formed..

3. Heat another heavy bottom wok over a medium low flame and melt the ghee..

4. Add khoya to the wok and sauté for about 10 - 15 minutes on a low flame till khoya turns brownish in colour..

5. Keep stirring continuously to avoid burning of the khoya..

6. Switch off the flame and keep aside for cooling down slightly (enough to handle with bare hands)..

7. Add sugar, cardamom powder and rose essence in the khoya mixture and mix by rubbing the mixture with hands to combine it well..

8. A dough is formed, now make lemon size balls of this mixture and lightly press them to make pedas.

9. Sprinkle chopped pistachios and they are ready..

10. These pedas can also be coated with powdered sugar. (optional)..

11. Let them dry for an hour and then they are ready to serve..

12. My tip- Be sure that mixture is not completely cooled down, else you will not able to form the peda.
