Ingredients:
- 1 liter of full-fat milk
- 1/2 cup of basmati rice
- 1/2 cup of sugar
- 1/4 cup of mixed nuts (almonds, pistachios, cashews), chopped
- 1/4 cup of raisins
- 1/2 tsp of cardamom powder
- 1/4 tsp of saffron threads
- 1 tbsp. of ghee
Instructions:
Step 1: Rinse the rice with cold water
until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in enough water for 30 minutes.
Step 2: In a heavy-bottomed pan,
heat the ghee over medium heat.
Step 3: Drain the rice and add it to
the pan. Stir the rice for a few minutes until it becomes fragrant and the grains
become slightly golden.
Step 4: Add the milk to the pan and
bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 30-40 minutes,
or until the rice is cooked through and the milk has reduced by half.
Step 5: Add the sugar, chopped nuts,
and raisins to the pan. Mix well and let it simmer for another 10-15 minutes,
or until the sugar has dissolved and the kheer has thickened.
Step 6: Add the cardamom powder and
saffron threads to the pan. Mix well and let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
Step 7: Turn off the heat and let
the kheer cool down to room temperature.
Step 8: Once the kheer has cooled down, transfer it to a serving dish and garnish with chopped nuts.
Tips:
Use full-fat milk for the best results. You can also use almond milk or coconut milk if you prefer a vegan option.
Soaking the rice beforehand helps to reduce the cooking time.
Stir the kheer occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
You can add more or less sugar depending on your taste preference.
You can also add other spices such as cinnamon or nutmeg for added flavor.
