Notes

  • Soaking Aval – I usually rinse aval once to remove dirt if any. Then soak in milk for 10 minutes. If it is thin aval, 5 minutes soaking is enough.
  • Warm Milk – I use boiled milk then heat it with condensed milk, jaggery then add it warm to aval. Do not let it boil for more time as there is jaggery there are chances for milk to split.
  • Mixing Well – I mix all ingredients gently but thoroughly so everything blends together well. 
  • Sweetener - You can use white sugar instead of jaggery and skip condensed milk too.
  • Serving  – I always serve paal aval warm for best taste and flavour.
