Doodh Paak (Gujarati Recipe)

Doodh paak is a semi-thick mithai, brimful with the goodness of milk. The milk is simmered for a while; then the rice is added and simmered till cooked. As the rice is cooked completely in the milk, it imbibes a luxurious flavour and aroma. The cardamom and saffron added towards the end complete the royal feel of this dish!

Preparation Time: 5 minutes. Cooking Time: 27 minutes. Serves 4.

5 cups full-fat milk
A few saffron (kesar) strands
1 tbsp warm milk
1 tbsp long grained rice (Basmati)
1 tbsp ghee
½ cup sugar
½ tsp cardamom (elaichi) powder

For the garnish
1 tbsp almond (badam) slivers
1 tbsp pistachio slivers

1. Combine the saffron and 1 tbsp of warm milk in a small bowl and keep aside.
2. Wash the rice and drain well. Add the ghee, mix well and keep aside.
3. Boil the milk in a deep non-stick pan on a high flame, while stirring twice in between. This will take approx. 4 to 5 minutes.
4. Add the rice-ghee mixture, mix well and cook on a slow flame approximately 15 minutes, while stirring and scraping the sides of the pan occasionally.
5. Add the sugar, saffron-milk mixture and cardamom powder, mix well and cook on a slow flame for 5 to 7 minutes or till the sugar dissolve completely, while stirring occasionally.
6. Cool slightly and refrigerate for at least ½ hour.
Serve chilled garnished with almond and pistachio slivers.
