Notes
- Adjust sugar according to your taste
- Pinch of food color can be added (I didn’t add any food color for instant pot kesari)
- Adjust butter according to your preference. Kesari can be prepared even with just 1 teaspoon of butter or without any butter
- Always add hot boiling milk. Room temperature or warm milk won’t give the same texture kesari
- Regular kesari can be prepared in the same way using instant pot. Use hot boiling water (kettle auto cut off water) instead of milk
- Deglaze the IP well to avoid the kesari from getting burn
- If the instant pot shows burnt it means rava/sugar stuck to the pot. Release the pressure immediately
- Make sure the pressure setting is low. High pressure will burn the pot
- Milk quantity may vary according to the Rava
