Beverages - Milk - Make this your favorite recipe - Upload a new picture for this recipe


INGREDIENTS
  • 100g almonds, raw
  • 1 cup sugar (to taste -- this is far more than I like)
  • 2-3 cups milk
  • 7-8 cardamom pods
  • 7-8 threads saffron
  • a little ghee or hot water
  • 1/4 tsp almond extract, optional

METHOD
Soak the almonds in warm water for an hour, then peel them.

Grind them to a smooth paste, adding water as necessary.

Melt some ghee, add the saffron threads, and set aside to steep.

Mix in the milk, and simmer till the raw almond smell decreases.

Add a little almond extract, if desired (I like this).

Mix in the saffron-infused ghee.


NOTES
This is good hot or cold. Mix before serving, if desired. The saffron flavor will intensify significantly overnight, if you make enough tokeep.
