Note:

  • You can make the Rabdi and Sugar Syrup side by side to save.
  • You can adjust the sweetness, by adding/reducing the amount of sugar while making the Syrup.
  • If you prefer not to take Ghee(aka Diet conscious), you can substitute Ghee with regular cooking oil to fry the Bread. Doing so, will undo the natural taste of the Dish.
