This is a fantastic dish made of Rava, milk and sugar. This is similar to the usual kesari. The only difference is that, here we add milk instead of water. As we add milk, the taste also becomes so nice that everyone will like this Kesari. First time I tried this on my son’s Birthday and it came out very well. My son complemented saying that it tastes like paal khova.
