Standard 1 cup measures 240 ml

Ingredients

  • 4 cups Full Fat Milk
  • 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.
