Instructions (9 steps)

01Take a heavy-bottom pan and pour in the milk. Heat it on medium flame.
02Once the milk comes to a boil, lower the heat to medium-low. Let it simmer and reduce slowly.
03Stir every 3–4 minutes. Use a wide spatula if possible. It covers more surface and makes stirring easier. If you use a small spoon, the milk may stick or burn at the bottom.
04After 40 minutes, the milk will become thicker and look slightly grainy. Don’t forget to scrape the bottom and sides of the pan.
05At the 50-minute mark, it will look more grainy and dense.Note: Cooking time may vary depending on the shape and size of the pan. It also depends on the quantity you're making—whether it's half, double, or triple the recipe.
06From this point, you need to stir more often and scrape the sides constantly.
