Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 50 ml Oil
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 1 litre Milk
- 1/2 tsp Chilli Powder
- 1 tsp Turmeric Powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 Green Chilli
- 2 tbsp Almond Powder
Instructions
- 1
Heat a medium-sized cooking pot or skillet over medium heat.
- 2
Add 1-2 tablespoons of oil to the heated pot and allow it to heat up for about 1 minute.
- 3
Once the oil is hot, add finely minced or chopped garlic to the pot.
- 4
Saute the garlic in the oil for approximately 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until it becomes fragrant and slightly golden brown. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
- 5
Pour 1 tablespoon of water into the pot with the garlic and continue to saute for another minute. This helps prevent the garlic from burning and adds moisture to the mixture.
- 6
Add the spices to the pan. Stir the spices into the garlic mixture and cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend and develop.
- 7
Pour 50ml of water into the pot, stirring to combine it with the garlic and spice mixture.
- 8
Gradually pour in milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Continue stirring until the mixture comes to a gentle boil.
- 9
Once the mixture is boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. This allows the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.
- 10
After simmering, add almond powder to the pot, stirring it into the sauce until well incorporated.
- 11
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the almond powder to heat through and thicken the sauce further.
- 12
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding salt or more spices according to your preference.

Once the sauce reaches your desired consistency and flavor, remove it from the heat and serve immediately with your favorite dish. Enjoy!
