- Add the remaining sugar to another pan over medium heat. Allow the sugar to get warm and then melt. You will gradually notice the sugar browning and caramelizing.

- Once milk cools off, add the whisked yoghurt, stir well and pour the mixture into earthen pots.
- Let the doi set in a warm place for few hours. Once set, refrigerate and serve chilled.
