Dulce de leche means sweet caramelized milk. Traditionally this is made by simmering milk and sugar till it’s thick and caramelized. A homemade version is made by simmering the Sweetened condensed milk till thick and caramel colored. Here’s the link as how to make this on stove top, microwave and oven. There is also process of cooking an unopened can of sweetened condensed milk in a slow cooker. I followed the steps/recipe from here to make my dulce de leche.
