Sugar- ½ cup

Pistachio nuts, blanched, peeled and chopped-10 gm.

Water- 60 ml
For the Flavouring:
Green chillies, deseeded, thinly sliced stewed in honey -02 nos.
Honey- 45 ml.

Method:

Method:
In a non-stick pan boil 60 ml of water, add 20 ml of honey and all the deseeded slices of green chillies.
Strain and divide into ¾ th and ¼ th portions i.e. to be added in the rabri and for the garnish.
In a heavy bottomed pan, add milk, bring to a boil. Add the sugar and cardamom powder and simmer over low flame / heat. Do not stir too often, as a layer of cream should form over it.
After the layer is formed, keep pushing it away from the sides towards the centre with the help of a wooden spatula. Keep stirring the milk below it gently to avoid scorching / burning. Repeat the process till 1/3 rd of the volume of milk is left. The wider the vessel and the richer the milk, the faster it will thicken.
When done, the colour changes to a beige-cream / off white, and the cream that was pushed aside, collects in layers.
Add the chopped nuts. Add stewed green chilli slices, the baby rasgullas / chenna murki, stir gently.
Remove from the flame. Add honey. Stir gently, taking care that you don’t break the baby rasgullas / chenna murki.
Let it cool. Transfer to a serving dish / clay pots.
Refrigerate to chill for at least 01 hour.
For the Serving:
Serve chilled garnished with deseeded sliced green chillies stewed in honey, broiled saffron, almond and pistachio nut slivers.
Chef Tips:
1. You may use silver leaf to top this dessert to make it more attractive, but remember to apply it before you garnish the dessert.
2. Make sure that the milk does not burn as, then it is next to impossible to rectify the burnt milk.
3. You may increase the no. of green chillies as per your taste.
4. You may add a few drops of kewra essence or natural screw pine essence / Rose water when the Rabri is done.
5. You may make this rabri without sugar i.e. only with honey as a sweetener , in that case increase the quantity of honey and add it to the milk when thickened and removed from the flame.
