Rabdi
A thick sweetened reduced-milk preparation used in South Asian desserts.
About Rabdi
Rabdi, also commonly written rabri, is a thick South Asian milk preparation made by heating milk until it reduces. A skin forms on the surface during cooking and is folded back into the mixture, contributing a layered, creamy texture. It is commonly sweetened, and may be flavoured or garnished, but recipes differ.
The finished preparation is pale cream to light tan and is served chilled or at room temperature in many settings. It may be relatively thick or more pourable, depending on reduction and recipe. Plain reduced milk, sweetened rabdi and versions with added nuts or flavourings are distinct forms.
