Notes
- Canned mango pulp is available in Indian stores. If you are using canned, I personally like Kesar Mango pulp by Deep. If canned mango pulp has sugar, then don’t add any additional sugar.
- How to make Saffron Water- take a few strings of saffron, add them to the warm water. Stir it to make saffron water.
- How to make Pistachio powder – take a few pieces of pistachio and grind them into a fine powder.
