Basundi

Ingredients:

2 cups 2% milk
3 cups Half and Half
1 cup sugar
saffron strands
cardamom powder
chopped nuts

Method:

Combine milk and half and half in a non stick pan. Boil until it reduces to half the quantity. When it starts to get thick, add sugar and mix well. Once the sugar dissolves, add the saffron and mix again. When the mixture becomes thick, switch off the heat and add cardamom powder. Garnish with chopped nuts. Serve warm or cold!

Note: The original recipe calls for whole milk, but I used a combination of 2% milk and Half and Half and it came out delicious! I noticed that by using half and half, the recipe comes together much faster and cuts the cooking time in half!
