Boondi tart with rabri|sweet boondi with rabri is the perfect combination. It tastes heavenly guys, trust me.

We are entering the festive month, so I thought the beginning of the celebration should start on a sweet note. So this entire 3 month is for celebration.

Diwali, Eid-E-Milad, karva chauth, Guru Nanak dev ji gurpurab, Christmas and new year are arriving. It’s celebration time right? Every festival can be enjoyed with scrumptious sweets.

What are the special things that you do during the festivities?

During festivals we clean our houses, light our house with diyas, gift our loved ones, visit gurdwara, pray, prepare special dishes, donate needy(seva), wear new clothes, family get together dinners and much more.😅

Sweet boondi with rabri is the best combination. In my hometown, there was a shop they use to serve sweet boondi with sev namkeen which is also made from besan. So that is the sweet and salt combination.

Try this recipe during festivals, I hope you will like it.

Quick jumps:

What is boondi?

Boondi is prepared using gram flour mixture, it can prepared either sweet or salty. Sweet boondi are also offered as prasad in gurudwaras and temples.

These tiny sweet balls are so addicting that you will eat it while preparing just like me.😅

You can make any colour balls I have added orange food colour you can add green, red, yellow or any colour of your choice.

What is rabri?

Rabri is made from milk, which is boiled until it become thick and is reduced to half.

Rabri is very creamy and rich in texture. It takes little time while preparing but it is worth it. It is also served with jalebi or you can have it alone.

In my city, we get the best rabri in kulhad in chandni chowk, Delhi. If you’re living in Delhi then you should also try it.😋

Now, I have talked so much about rabri that I am craving for it right now.😅

Top tips:

  • The sugar syrup should have one string consistency, not more than that.
  • Always add the boondi in the warm sugar syrup.
  • Don’t over fry the boondi, it usually takes 40 to 50 seconds to fry then take it off from the oil and make sure to drain the excess oil in the absorbent paper.
  • If the boondi mixture turn thick, then add little water to make runny consistency.
  • You need to have patience while making rabri, stir the milk then slowly and gradually, at last, you will get creamy thick rabri.
  • Let the rabri cool down then spread it over the boondi tart. After cooling down rabri will get more thick.

Step by step instructions with pictures:

Meethi boondi:

6. Then add orange food colour in the mixture. It’s optional. add baking soda in it and mix. Mix it nicely so that their are no lumps and it is ready to fry.

7. Heat the canola oil or refined oil, the oil should be medium-hot. Hold the ladle (use the ladle which has numerous holes in it) on the surface of the oil and pour the mixture on the ladle.

8. The mixture will automatically fall over the oil into small droplets, rotate the ladle around the pan or kadhai and you can also disperse the mixture present on ladle with a spoon which will help the mixture to fall in oil easily.

9. Stir the boondi using a spatula and fry it on medium flame.

10. Don’t over fry the boondi or don’t make it brown, the colour of the boondi should remain the same that is yellow or if using orange food colour then it should be orange.

11. When boondi turns crispy transfer it to an absorbent paper and then transfer that boondi to the warm sugar syrup.

12. Repeat the same process for the rest of the mixture i.e, fry+drain of excess oil+transfer it sugar syrup=perfect boondi.😋 Let the boondi rest in the sugar syrup for at least 40 to 45 minutes.

Rabri:

13. In a pot or Kadhai add full fat milk and cardamom powder. cook it on medium flame. Continuously stir the milk so that it doesn’t burn from the bottom.

14. After the continuous cooking when the milk reduces to half then add sugar and mix.

15. It needs lots of patience to make rabri and when the milk reduces to half cook it on low flame and stir. after few minutes you will get the perfect creamy rabri to layer it up on tart.
