INGREDIENTS

• Low fat milk(1% organic milk is good)              1 litre
• Sugar                                                                  1/4 cup
• Butter                                                                 4-5 Tsp

PROCEDURE

Choose a very thick bottom and deep vessel for this recipe.

I usually use the pressure cooker without the lid.

If you have microwave first heat the entire milk to a boiling point and the transfer it to the vessel or pressure cooker.( Once the milk is boiling it doesn't stick to the bottom of the vessel. The milk burning from the bottom happens only when it is heating. So, to avoid this, heat the milk in the microwave and then transfer to the vessel.)

Let the milk boil and keep stirring the milk. You do not want any creamy layer forming on the milk. 

You will need a lot of patience. 

Keep the flame on medium and wait until you are left with 1/4th of the milk by stirring continuously. 

It takes about 30 to 35 minutes.

Now add the sugar and keep on stirring for another 15 minutes.

When the milk coats the spoon you can switch off the flame and let the milk cool. 

Be sure to stir every 2 minutes even after switching off the flame to avoid the layer forming on the milk.

Now  blend the milk, butter with a  hand blender by placing the vessel in ice cubes so that the milk turns creamy and cools quickly.

Store it in a clean glass jar. 

You can refrigerate for upto a week.
