Hello all... As i am busy with my personal work all these days i am back with a sweet recipe :)
Today i am posting sweet recipe and my favorite one... yummy yummy BASUNDI :)
BASUNDI is a sweet recipe prepared with milk, sugar and nuts... Addition of dryfruits and cardamom flavour gives a rich n tasty flavour to the dish. This is usually prepared in Maharashtra and Gujarat and especially during Navaratri and diwali and during special occasions :)
Preparation time : 5 min
Cooking time : 1 hour 30 min
Serves 2-3
INGREDIENTS
Milk - 1 litre
Sugar - 1/4 cup, u can reduce by 1 tbsp
Cardamom power - 1 tsp
Pista - a fistful
PREPARATION
- Chop the nuts and keep aside. Keep half for sweet and other half for garnish.
- Take a heavy bottom pan and add milk in it. Once the milk is boiled reduce the flame.
- Let it boil on slow flame by stirring in between. The milk must reduce, take care it should not get burnt or stick to the pan. This may take 15 min.
- Once it is reduced to half add sugar. Mix well and stir in between. This may take 40-50 min to get thickened.
- Once it is thickened add cardamom powder an chopped pista and mix well.
- Serve hot or cold as per your choice. If you want to serve cold off the stove before 10 min because it will get thick once it is cooled.
- U can add dryfruits as per your choice.
- U can add kesar if u like the flavor and u can replace condensed milk with sugar as it gives rich n creamy texture to the dish.
- I used fat less milk but u can cook this dish with full fat milk.
