Notes
- Corn flour mixed with milk is added to thicken milk faster but that can be skipped too.
- If you add very little saffron the color will be dull ivory.
- I recommend using full fat cream milk , don't use low fat milk.
- You can use corn flour mixed with milk as thickening agent. Just add it along with milk after boiling this helps in making the thickening process quicker.
