Chawali ki kheer – Indian Rice Pudding

Most of us love kheer, the sweet rice pudding, which is offered to the havan and afterwards shared as prasaad.

Here is how to prepare it.

For 4 servings you will need:

280 ml Basmati rice

600 ml full cream milk

-15-15120 ml sugar

1/2 tsp cardamom powder

Some strands of saffron

1Tbsp chopped almonds

1Tbsp cashew nuts

1Tbsp raisins

Preparation:

1. Wash rice under running cold water until clear
2. Soak in cold water 20-30 min.
3. While rice is soaking, chop the nuts
4. After rice has soaked, discard the water.

Cooking kheer:

Put milk into pan and bring to boil

Add rice, stir, and let simmer on medium heat for about 20 min.

Don’t allow it to stick to pan, so stir every 5 minutes until tender

Then add sugar and cardamom powder, stir well

Add saffron strands, chopped cashews, almonds and raisins

Mix well, turn off the heat and allow to sit for a while

(remember rice keeps expanding and uses up fluids even after you turn off the heat.)
