## Notes

* firstly, traditional kharvas is prepared with colostrum milk (cheek) and no curd / condensed milk is added.

* also, steam the junnu on medium flame, else they turn rubbery.

* additionally, garnish with chopped dry fruits / saffron for more flavours.

* furthermore, to make junnu without condensed milk and curd; use corn flour along with milk and sugar.

* finally, use good quality milk and milk powder to make **instant kharvas / junnu recipe**.
