NOTES AND TIPS

  • Method for rabri 1-a simple method is to condense the full cream milk (with high fat) without adding khoya,maida or paneer to it and prepare rabri like my basundhi/rabri
  • Method for rabri-2-Milk + (cream/powdered bread /paneer/khoya) and add condensed milk.
  • Instead of crumbling paneer also can grind it.
  • As we are using condensed milk in rabri no need to add sugar.
  • If not using condensed milk use less sugar.
  • You can also use rose water for flavor.
