The Making Of Khuwa Or Kurauni In Nepal

A Nepali man stirs the milk as he prepares Khuwa or Kurauni, a dish made of milk, in Sindhuli District, Nepal, on May 19, 2025. Khuwa, also known as Kurauni, is a dairy product widely used in South Asian cuisine. It is made from either dried milk or milk thickened by heating in an open iron pan. It has lower moisture content than typical fresh cheeses such as ricotta. It is used to make many sweet dishes. Milk is reduced to one-fifth of its original volume to make Kurauni.
