Ingredients
- 4 cups Full Fat Milk
- ⅓ cup Granulated Sugar
- Saffron generous pinch
- 10 Almonds
- 10 Pistachios
- ½ tsp Cardamom Powder
Instructions
- In a thick bottomed pan add the full fat milk and bring it to a boil.
- Once it comes to a boil simmer the flame. The milk will start forming the Malai/Cream layer.
- Scrape the malai with a ladle and keep cooking.
- Continue collecting the Malai/Cream layer till the milk thickens and is reduced to almost ½ or ⅓rd of its original quantity.
- Mix well and then add Sugar.
- Next, add Cardamom Powder.
- Soak saffron in 3 tbsp of lukewarm milk for 30 mins. Now add the saffron along with milk to rabdi.
- Simmer for another two minutes. By now the Radbi is all thickened and perfect. Garnish with sliced almonds and pistachios and switch off.
- I also garnished some Rose Petals. Tasty Rabdi is now ready.

Notes
- Don’t Stir Continuously. If so the Malai Layer will not be formed. Allow the milk to stand for some time and then stir occasionally.
- But make sure the milk is not burned. Using a thick bottomed pan will be a better choice.
- The Final quantity of Rabdi will be ¼ th of the original quantity.
- Serve warm or chilled. And I prefer it chilled.
