INGREDINTS:

1 Cup Milk

1 ½ Cup Thick Set Curds [I used Amul]

400 gms Condensed Milk

¼ teaspoon Saffron Strands

¼ teaspoon Cardamom Powder

Chopped nuts for garnishing [pistachios and almonds]

METHOD:
STEP 1 – In a big mixing bowl, add curds
and whisk it well until smooth and no lumps.

STEP 2 – Then add milk and condensed milk in it and again whisk well.

There should be no lumps. The consistency should be smooth.
STEP 3 – Add saffron and cardamom powder in it and mix it.

STEP 4 – Pour the yogurt in individual ramekin moulds.

STEP 5 – Add water in the baking tray till half. Keep the ramekin moulds in the baking tray.

STEP 6 – Now bake the yogurt in pre-heated oven at 170 degree C for 30-40 minutes or until yogurt is set. Check with tooth-pick like cake. Insert a tooth-pick in the middle of the mould and if it comes out clean means it is done. If thin liquid sticks to the skewer bake for another 5 minutes. [see notes]
STEP 7 – Once done allow it to cool a bit in oven as water in the pan is too hot right now. STEP 8 – Remove the ramekins from the oven and bring them to room temperature.


 Later refrigerate for about 3-4 hours. You can refrigerate yogurt overnight, if you don’t have any drooling souls around you. STEP 9 – Enjoy your chilled Bhapa Doi / Steamed Yogurt.

While serving, garnish with some chopped nuts on the top to add some crunch in the dessert.

NOTES: *Even the middle portion is little wobbly it will set once refrigerated.
