I made this today but it was not smooth, a bit grainy. I think the cream curdled or something.. What could have been the reason? But the taste was great 🙂

Hii the butter to be used should be salted or unsalted?
If salted is used then I can exclude the salt part right?

Can I use a light thickened cream or does it have to be a full cream? Also, can I use a double boiler as I don't have a non-stick saucepan? Dying to try this recipe.

Hi aarthi.. Tried this recipe today and it came out amazingly well! The color and texture turned out to be perfect! But I find it too salty for my taste. I added 1.5 tsp of sugar as mentioned. Is there a way to reduce the saltiness now?
Anamika

Wonderful recipe Aarthi
Just that it is salty and 1 TSP of salt would be better instead.
