Thats a yummy treat Shri...Lovely silver bowl.
Basundi looks yummy & creamy...very tempting!!
I love creamy desserts. I think I may have this at an Indian restaurant before. The only ingredient I will have problem find would be the saffron. And spices, especially middle eastern spices, are hard to find in my city which is bad because I love Indian and Pakistani food. Is there a website that I can buy these spices?
Hi Xiao,
I am assuming you are in the States in which case, you can get from Amazon.I believe there is international shipping as well!
