Rabri

Benetta Lobo

Rabri is a very rich, creamy and delicious dessert. In Karachi you get the best Rabri from the Delhi Rabri House. Rabri is a very simple dessert to prepare but requires lots of patience. If you love Cream (Balai), then this will definitely be your favourite dessert.

Do remember that Rabri is made from Condensing the Milk hence whatever quantity of Milk you will use, it will reduce to less than half of the quantity. Only use Full Cream Milk for preparing Rabri. It is best to have Rabri chilled to enjoy it's creamy flavours. You may garnish it with Sliced Almonds and Pistachios.
