Rabri - Rich, Creamy, and Easy RABRI

Rabri is probably one of the most popular and loved dishes across India. It is an awesome dish in itself; imagine what it can do as a part of any other dessert... is easy to guess! 

The Rabri is made of milk that is cooked on the lowest possible flame and then it is sweetened loaded with nuts and chilled. It has to be served in a "Mitti ka bartan" (a mud bowl). The earthen bowl just adds some charm to the simple Rabri. 

I am making the rabri only with 3 ingredients! Main ingredient is milk, the sweetness comes from the Milkmaid and then the crunch from the nuts. while you can have it hot , i love it when it is chilled! I am making it the traditional way of slow cooking it, there are lots of instant Rabri recipes and i am holding on the thought of trying it out. because somethings are best the way they are. 


Also for this recipe i am mentioning quantities, i love it like this. not too sweet but super creamy and full of layers of the thick milk. 

What do you need to make the Rabri?

• Milk 1 Ltr
• Milkmaid 1/2 tin
• Chopped nuts (As many as you like!) 
• Saffron  6-7 strands.
