  • Basundi Recipe | How to Make Basundi | Indian Dessert
    Basundi Recipe | How To Make Basundi | Indian Dessert Basundi recipe is an Indian dessert popular in Maharashtra and Gujarat. It is a calorie rich, scrumptious dessert prepared by simmering the milk for a long time until it reduced to half of its volume, finally flavored with saffron, almonds and pistachios. This is one of my top favorite sweet. I used to eat a lot in my college days as my father used to get me kesar basundi every week from Agarwal sweets. My husband has not tasted it before so I made this easy and tasty basundi recipe for diwali. Addition of almonds and pistachios to basundi recipe adds a nice crunch to this creamy dessert. Saffron imparts color and flavor to the dish. When you make basundi , always scrap the sides of vessel while cooking, as that will make the basundi thick and imparts creamy texture. It is served as a dessert or sweet accompaniment in lunch or during any Indian festivals like diwali. Also it tastes great with gulab jamun or hot malpuas. Ingredients 3 Cups of Milk (2 % or Full Fat) 3-4 Tbsp of White Sugar 20 Saffron Strands 10 Almonds, Chopped 10 Cashews, Chopped 10 Pistachios, Chopped Pinch Of Nutmeg Powder 3 Cardamom, Powdered 1 Tsp of Ghee (Melted Butter), Optional To Garnish Almonds and Pistachios Method Chop the almonds, cashews and pistachios . Powder the cardamom with mortar and pestle. Soak the saffron in 2 tsp of warm milk and keep this aside. Take a heavy bottomed vessel, add the milk, bring the milk to boil and reduce the flame, cook on the slow flame, till the volume is reduced to half of its volume.
