Step 1
Pour the 4 cups whole milk into a heavy-bottomed pan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring often, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring frequently, until the milk reduces by half and thickens slightly, about 15 minutes. The milk should coat the back of a spoon.
Step 3
Stir in the 3 tbsp sugar and 1 tsp ghee, mixing until the sugar dissolves completely, about 1 minute. The rabri should be thick and creamy.
Step 4
Serve warm or chilled, garnished with a pinch of cardamom or chopped nuts if you like.
