Directions

120 min.
1. Step

Begin by heating 2 litres of milk in a large, thick-bottomed pan. Stir occasionally to avoid it from sticking to the bottom.

2. Step

Once the milk comes to boil, add lemon juice, mix well, and continue boiling until it reduces to half its original quantity.

3. Step

In a separate pan, prepare sugar syrup by boiling water and sugar together till it reaches a one-string consistency.

4. Step

Add the reduced milk to the sugar syrup. Mix well to combine. Continue to cook on medium flame.

5. Step

As the mixture starts thickening, add ghee and cardamom powder. Stir continuously to avoid the formation of lumps.

6. Step

Keep stirring till the mixture leaves the sides of the pan. This indicates that the cake mix is ready.

7. Step

Pour the mix into a greased tray and let it cool down. Garnish with chopped almonds and pistachios.

8. Step

Once cooled, cut the Milk Cake into your desired shape and serve.
