Sitaphal Basundi is a custard apple and milk based dessert, a delicious and healthy twist to our traditional Gujarati Basundi. It is a wholesome combination of the goodness of fruit & aromatic flavours of saffron and green cardamom. The dessert is rich and creamy with a big tick to the health quotient. It can be heartily enjoyed on festivities, fasting days and when the scale starts to move

 

Ingredients: 

Full fat milk – 750ml;

 Custard apples – 2;

Amul Mithai Mate – 2 tbsp; 

Almonds – 10 to 12; 

Cardamom powder – ½ tsp; 

Few saffron strands

 

Process: 

Bring the milk to a boil in a pan and let it simmer on low heat. 

Add the condensed milk and mix well; 

Sprinkle the cardamom powder and saffron strands; 

Let the milk continue to thicken on low heat; When the milk has reduced to half of the original quantity, remove from flame and cool to room temperature. 

Meanwhile, remove the pulp from custard apples; 

Do not scrape too hard as you may get the bitterness of the shells; 

Also thinly slice the almonds. Once the milk is cool, add the fruit pulp and mix well.

Garnish with slivered almonds and few saffron strands.
