Instructions

  2. Dry roast for 3 to 4 minutes on a low heat stirring often until lightly toasted.
  3. Remove and keep aside in a plate or tray. Use fresh nuts and not the ones whose shelf life has expired.
  4. In the same pan, add the saffron strands.
  5. Keeping heat to a low, stir and roast for more than half a minute, till the color of the saffron changes to a darker shade. Remove and keep aside.
  6. Grate the nutmeg and keep aside.
  7. Once the nuts cool down, then add everything in a dry grinder jar, including rose petals, fennel, black pepper, turmeric powder, cardamom seeds and sugar.
  8. If you have a small dry grinder jar, then you will have to grind in batches. Grind to a fine powder. Grind in short spurts and not at a stretch.
  9. Remove the Milk Masala Powder and keep in an airtight container or jar. Store in the fridge or freezer, as the nuts may get rancid.
  10. The recipe yields a medium jar of milk powder.
  11. To serve, dissolve 2 to 3 teaspoons of the Milk Masala Powder in a glass of hot milk or chilled milk. Add sugar as required. Stir and serve the flavored milk.
