Ingredients

• 1 l - full cream milk
• 1/4 cup - condensed milk
• 1 tbsp - sugar
• 3 pods - cardamom
• 5 - almonds, blanched
• 3 - pistachios, skinned

How to Make Chilled Milk Dessert

• Soak the saffron in 2 tsp of hot milk and keep aside.
• Chop the almonds and pistachios finely or crush coarsely.
• Peel and powder the cardamom seeds with a mallet.
• Add to the chopped dry fruits.
• Run the saffron with the base of a mallet in cup until it dissolves in the milk.
• Boil the milk in a large deep pan, stirring occasionally.
• Reduce the heat and continue to boil, stirring frequently until the milk reduces to two-third the volume.
• Add the other ingredients to the milk.
• Boil further for 3-4 minutes. Take off the flame and cool the milk a little.
• Pour into a large decorative serving bowl.
• Allow the milk to cool completely, then chill in a refrigerator for 4-5 hours (to avoid formation of layers on the surface, stir frequently while cooling).
• Decorate with rose petals and serve.
