Microwave Palkova | Palkova with Condensed Milk | Gokulastami Recipe under 10 mins

Palkova, a delicious sweet made from milk and it's the most favorite sweet of mine in my childhood.Whenever we visit Sankarankovil, that's my mom's native, we used to buy this from the milk society. 

Next to Srivilliputhur, Sankarankovil is famous for it's palkova and it is so grainy and has melt in mouth texture. I have tried the traditional way of making palkova from milk a few times, but i couldn't get the exact taste and texture.

Later i came to know about the making of palkova from sweetened condensed milk in microwave and so far i had tried this method a couple of times  & every time it turned out so delicious.

l'm so in  love with the grainy texture of this palkova. One thing i have to admit here that it doesn't taste like the traditional palkova made from milk, but still it taste good on its own way and satisfy your palkova craving within minutes.

As Krishna jeyanthi is around the corner, this might to be easy naivedyam that you can offer to Lord Krishna on this auspicious day. Happy Krishna Jeyanthi to all who celebrate it.
