Mishti Doi


                Mishti Doi is a popular Bengali dessert. It is basically setting the yoghurt using thick milk. Milk is flavored with caramelized sugar. I just love it. Here is the recipe for it. Do try it & leave your comments below in the comments section...





Ingredients:
  • Full Cream Milk 1 litre
  • Sugar 8 tbsp
  • Curd 2 tbsp
  • 1 Earthen pot
Method:
  • Pour the milk in a thick bottom vessel and start heating over low flame.
  • As it starts boiling add 4 tbsp of sugar and keep on simmering till the volume is reduced to little less than half.
  • Take the remaining sugar with 2 tablespoons of water and heat till the sugar melts and attains a golden brown color. Do not stir in between. Basically you have to caramelize the remaining sugar.
  • Gradually add the caramelized sugar over the milk and boil for another 15 minutes over low flame.
  • Remove from flame and let it become lukewarm.
  • Pour the milk in the earthen pot (or any other oven proof bowl of your choice) and add the curd.
  • Let the milk rest overnight in the preheated oven to be set as curd (don't turn on the oven!).
  • Refrigerate the set curd and serve chilled.
