Notes
- If using dairy free milk, do not bring the mixture to a boil as this will split/curdle the mixture. Let it simmer on low heat until the spices have infused and the flavors have gotten combined into the milk.
- You can adjust the sweetness as per your choice.
- If you are using fresh turmeric root, use the same amount, grate it and start by cooking the grated root in the sauce pot first for 2 minutes. Then add the rest of the ingredients and follow the recipe as mentioned.
