Notes

  • You can even add raw grated sweet potato and cook in milk but takes a little longer time and more milk so I pressure cooked for a whistle then cooked in milk.
  • You can use regular white sugar instead of cane sugar.
  • I used cows milk, use any milk which is creamy so that it is rich.
  • You can add cardamom powder if you like the flavour.
  • You can add chiroli nuts too.
