Kheer Recipe

Ingredients for Kheer:

3 cup rice
6 blanched almonds
1/4 cup sugar
6 cup milk
2 green cardamom

Recipe:

1. To begin with, soak the almonds overnight and slice these nuts on a clean chopping board and keep them aside until needed again. If you like the roasted taste, you can dry roast in a non-stick pan.
   
2. Keep a pressure cooker on medium flame and add milk in it. Allow the milk to come to a boil, then add rice in it followed by cardamon and sugar. Using a spatula, mix all the ingredients properly. If you want your kheer to be healthy you can replace sugar with sugar free or stevia.
3. Cover the pressure cooker with a lid and allow the mixture to be cooked on medium flame for 10 to 12 minutes. Once done, do not immediately open the cooker rather allow the steam to first escape from the cooker.
4. After that open up the lid and reheat the milk mixture in the pressure cooker on high flame. Cook until a thick and creamy consistency is obtained. Serve fresh and hot! You can garnish this delectable recipe with chopped raisins, saffron strings, sliced almonds and nuts. Saffron adds a beautiful tint to this amazing recipe and adds on to the flavour.
