Basundi is one of the famous Indian desert. Milk is thickend in low flame and sweetened with sugar. Even though it takes considerable time to prepare, everyone in my home love this sweet. Today I made this at home.

Method:
- Boil the milk in a thick bottomed pan.

Note:
- You can mix saffron in little warm milk and mix in the milk and boil.
