250 ml of oil
1 tablespoon of Nitu Didi Cardamom powder

METHOD:
Make a dough with the milk powder using the liquid milk with the cardamom powder. Make a stiff dough and cover it and keep it aside. In a thick bottomed big casserole pan bring the water and sugar to boil with Nitu Didi pure spanish saffron and boil till it thickens a bit. Grate the milk dough and put it into the syrup and cook till it thickens, Slowly keep on adding the oil till the mixture leaves the sides of the pan. You will see how the color changes.
