Basundhi | Basandhi

         

           Basundhi | Basandhi is a creamy rabdi kind of milk dessert, Which takes almost 1 to 1 1/2 hour but still worth for it.People who likes milk sweets will be fond of if they tasted it once. I am not big fan of sweets ,but i love milk sweets especially palkova ,rasagulla & jamun.I tasted this dessert for the first time in my frnd Ams Karthic House. Its was our college final year , he invited me and my frnd Vini to his house for lunch(Birthday lunch).His mom prepared basundhi for us.Really his mom is a great cook i liked everything she prepared even cocunut rice(she said its prepared from orange color full fat "aavin Milk").From that day i was asking him to get basundhi from his mom but still i didnt get.I was in touch with him till my marriage after that got busy with my kid.

      So i want to dedicate this recipe to my Dear frnd Ams Karthic:) 

      This is my 50th recipe in my blog ,so i want to make sweet and prepared it a month back.But as i am in vacation i couldnt post .Enjoy this delicious dessert..
