What you need to make chuara milk

Dry dates: dry dates also known as chuara in India. basically it is dehydrated and is slightly hard.

Milk: full fat buffalo milk.

Water: it helps to soften the dry dates and release all its natural sweetness in the water so that the milk is slightly sweet as well.

• Deseed the dry dates or chuara with the help of knife or break it with rolling pin and then take out the seed.

• Now, In a kadhai add water and add deseeded dry dates in it. cook it at medium flame until the water is reduced to half.

(Note: this step will ensure that all the natural sweetness of dates will release in water and the dates will get slightly soft as well)
