Tip

Do not ever add the mango in the hot milk as the milk will curdle.

Add the sugar accordingly since mango has its own sweetness.

  1. Your fondest memory is of numerous summer vacations spent plucking mangoes from your neighbour’s tree. And when you couldn’t find a tree in your neighbourhood, you tried growing one.
    Whatever you do, ensure there are enough mangos on earth so that we can enjoy, Mango Kheer 🙂
