Shahi Rabri is a rich, creamy, thickened, sweetened milk dessert, popular in North India. Learn how to make this classic Indian dessert the easy way out with no cooking involved!

Ideally making rabdi is quite a tedious task, as is the case with a lot of Indian dairy-based desserts. Traditionally, rabri is made by the continuous simmering and reducing of milk in a wide thick bottomed pan, whilst collecting the layers of cream, known as lachha malai which form at the sides of the pan. Hence, it is also known as lachhedar rabri.
Now, this process can take at least 2 hours, depending on the quantity of milk, which is quite laborious.

In today’s fast-paced life, who doesn’t like instant stuff? I generally love to make things from scratch, whether it is a pizza base, dinner rolls , marinara sauce or even a pie crust. Today I made an exception!!
This Indian sweet rabri recipe is so simple to make that even a kid can put together.

How to make easy stuffed mushrooms?
You start off by cleaning the mushrooms first. I prefer to rinse the mushrooms under running water and then pat dry with a clean kitchen napkin. I somehow do not feel comfortable just wiping them off with a napkin without rinsing. But in case you do rinse the mushrooms, remember to use them right away.
Never wash mushrooms, and store them in the refrigerator. Mushrooms soak up liquid like a sponge, so keep that in mind. Other than that, there is no harm in washing mushrooms.
Once you are done with that, gently break off the stems. Scoop out the gills with the help of a spoon. This is optional, but I feel it just gives more room for the stuffing.
Chop up the stems finely and set aside. Sauté some onions, garlic, and chopped mushroom stems. Then add bell peppers, and spinach leaves. Transfer it to a bowl and add breadcrumbs, parsley, some salt, and pepper. That’s about it. Your easy stuffing is ready.

Next, simply stuff the mushrooms, transfer to a baking tray lined with aluminum foil. Drizzle a little oil, and bake in a preheated oven at 375 degrees F for 20 – 25 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and the top is golden.

Can you make stuffed mushrooms ahead of time?
Yes, you definitely can. Simply follow the recipe until step 8, till stuffing the mushrooms. Place them in a plate, cover with a cling wrap and refrigerate it until you are ready to bake them. They will keep well for up to 2 days.
Also, avoid washing the mushrooms if you intend making these ahead of time. Simply wipe it off with a clean and damp kitchen napkin.
