Sugar- 2-3 tbs
Cardamon powder- 1/2 tsp
Cashew nuts and raisins for garnish.

Heat one tsp ghee in a pan and add mango puree. Cook this in medium flame till the puree thickens. Add 3 tbs of sugar and continue cooking till it thicken and starts leaving the edges of the pan. Allow this to cool down a bit and stir in the condensed milk. Set this aside.
Wash palada and strain it. Add one tsp of ghee in a heavy bottom pan and lightly roast the ada for a minute. Add 3 cups of milk and allow it boil. Reduce the flame to low medium and cook till the ada is soft . Stir occasionally as there is a tendency for milk and ada to stick to the bottom. When the ada is cooked stir in cardamon powder and condensed milk mixed with cooked mango. After a minute switch off the flames.
Heat ghee and roast the cashew nuts and raisins and garnish on top.
