Notes

  • For non vegan option regular milk can also be used. 
  • For vegan option - I personally prefer unsweetened coconut milk (tetra pack). However, any dairy free milk can be used in this recipe. 
  • Feel free to adjust salt as per your taste.
  • Fresh crushed black pepper tastes great in this recipe. feel free to sprinkle extra black pepper as per our taste if desired.
