  2. slow cook (normal mode) for 2 hrs.
  3. then again sauté on normal  till you get desired consistency.
  4. garnish with pistachios.
Notes
  • get khoya from indian  grocery store.  can use ricotta cheese (microwave for 3 minutes until it curdles).  strain before adding.
  • q: after 2 hours it was still very liquid. I put it on sauté to get it thicker wouldn't work, it kept going off, I finally put it back on manual for 10 more mins. Any other suggestions to get it better next time.  a:  Try more than 2 hours next time. With me it worked in 2 hours and was not very liquidy so was easier to cook on sauté.
