My mom  tips -
* Use full  cream  milk and  condense  milk  for  rich  heavier  taste.
*How  to  blanched  nuts..
Just  boil the desired  nuts for 4-5 minutes on  medium  heat on a pan. Drain  the  excess  water  and  peel  the skin  of  nuts then finely  chopped  and  use  as  required.


That's  all  for the  day. We shall  come  very  soon  with  some  tasty yummy  recipes.

Till  then ...
Take care,
Stay  healthy , stay  blessed.
