Tips & Secrets

  • Using full-fat buffalo milk is mandatory for achieving the most dense and creamy result.
  • Constant stirring is the absolute secret to preventing the milk solids from sticking and browning.

  • Adding a little khoya or milk powder provides a sophisticated body and prevents melting too fast.
