( Click image for enlarged view )

One of my special moments after marraige was when my hubby gifted me a cookery book "Microwave Cooking with Tarla Dalal". I prepared my first dessert "shahi rabri" from this book. The very name "shahi" means royal n "rabri" means thick milk dessert.

This is an exotic dessert which can be prepared very quickly with minimum ingredients. Cottage cheese is simmered in milk n flavored with pistachio n cardamom.

Preparation Time: 15 min

Cooking Time : 6 min

Serves 4

Ingredients:

• 2 cups organic milk
• 1 cup grated paneer(cottage cheese)
• 1/2 cup condensed milk
• 2 tbsp finely chopped pista
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1/8 tsp cardamom powder
• 2-3 drops of rose essence

For Garnishing

• 1 tsp pista

Cooking Procedure

Mix all the above ingredients in a microwave safe deep bottom bowl n microwave on high for 6 min.In between stir it at every 2 minutes.

After 6 min let it cool then garnish with chopped pista n refrigerate for minimum 1 hr n serve cold.

Note: The chosen bowls height should be 4 times the height of the milk because this will prevent the milk from overflowing in the microwave.

Party Serving Tip: Before refrigeration first divide them in small serving bowls, then garnish n refrigerate. Serve chilled directly to guests.
