Things to keep in mind while making Lacchedar Rabri at home –
1. Make sure to use full fat buffalo’s milk for best results.
2. Use a heavy bottom sauce pan or kadai. I prefer nonstick kadai for this recipe.
3. Do not stir a lot, let a layer of malai form on the top.
4. Push the malai on the sides and then only stir the milk.
5. Make sure the milk doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan. Scrape the milk from bottom while stirring.
6. Add sugar only when the milk is reduced to half or quarter, else it will start caramalising.
7. Try not to break the malai, to get bigger chunks of lachha.

What is the shelf life of Rabri –
