  • a pinch of saffron

Instructions

  • Grind together sugar, almonds, pistachios, saffron and cardamom together to a slightly coarse mixture, set aside.
  • Boil milk in a pan. Simmer for 15 mins till milk reduces. Stir in between to avoid burning at the bottom.
  • Now add nuts sugar mixture. Scrap the sides and keep cooking till the mixture is thick and creamy. Keep cooking. till it coats the ladle.
  • Cool down completely.
  • Rinse the clay pots then pour it in the pots. Freeze it overnight or at least for 6-8 hours.

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.
