Ingredients

2

half liter Whole milk

15 pieces Strands of saffron

2 tbsp Sugar

1 tablespoon Ghee

quarter teaspoon Ground cardamom

1 pinch Ground nutmeg

Chopped Almonds as per taste

Pistachio as per taste

Tips

Use high-quality saffron for the best flavor and color.

Adjust the sweetness according to your preference by increasing or decreasing the amount of sugar.

For a vegan alternative, substitute whole milk with almond milk or coconut milk, and ghee with coconut oil.

Directions

Heat the whole milk in a saucepan over medium heat until it comes to a gentle boil.

Add the saffron strands and let them steep in the milk for 5-7 minutes, allowing the milk to absorb the flavor and color.

Stir in the sugar until dissolved, followed by the ghee, ground cardamom, and a pinch of nutmeg.

Simmer the mixture for another 2-3 minutes, stirring continuously to ensure all ingredients are well combined.

Remove from heat and strain the saffron milk into serving cups.

Garnish with chopped almonds and pistachios if desired.

Serve warm and enjoy the luxurious flavors before bedtime.
