Ingredients:

(Note: 1 cup = 250ml, 1 tbsp = 15ml)

Gluten-free Milk: 1 ltr
Curd: 1 cup
Sugar: 1/2 cup + 1/2 cup
Cardamom Powder: 1/4 tsp
Cashew nuts: 1 tsp, chopped
Almonds: 1 tsp, chopped


Method:
- Take milk in a deep bottomed pan and bring it to boil on a medium flame.

- Reduce the flame and boil the milk.

- Keep stirring regularly to make sure that the milk solids don’t stick to the pan.

- After around 40 minutes, the milk will have reduced to half of the original quantity.

- Now add the curd, then ½ cup sugar and stir.

- The milk will curdle, and the whey will separate from the milk solids. Keep stirring regularly and continue to boil on medium-low flame.

- In a second pan, heat the remaining ½ cup of sugar on medium heat. Do not add any water when caramelising the sugar.

- Let the sugar melt and caramelise to a golden-brown colour.

- Transfer the sugar caramel immediately to the reduced milk and keep stirring until the liquid has completely evaporated.

- Finally add cardamom powder, chopped almonds, cashew nuts

- Keep stirring for another 3-5 minutes until the Kunda resembles a solid mass, then turn off the heat.

- You can transfer the Kunda to a greased tray and cut it into the desired shape or serve as it is in a bowl.
