Cooking Instructions

Preparation time-5 mins, Cooking time-40 mins
  1. 1

    In a wok heat ghee and add Makhane. On low flame roast for 3 mins until Makhane has a golden colour.

  2. 2

    Add 4 cups milk to it and on low flame cook stirring continuously for 8 mins. Milk would be reduced a little but keep stirring and scraping the sides

  3. 3

    Add saffron dipped in milk and continue stirring for 6 mins

  4. 4

    Add sugar at this time and keep stirring as sugar will release water. I didn’t add the Makhane in blender as I don’t prefer but one can do that.

  5. 5

    The Makhane is becoming thick now. Add chopped almonds, cashew nuts and raisins and stir for 2 mins. Set aside

  6. 6

    Cool to room temperature and refrigerate for 3-4 hours

  7. 7

    PS - Don’t stir a lot as Makhane after refrigeration would become very thick.

  8. 8

    Plate and garnish with chopped almonds and saffron strands and enjoy
