Kheer - Rice Pudding

I sincerely hope you would share the same passion as me!

Kheer is a traditional Asian pudding, made of rice, milk, sugar and spices.

Ingredients
  • 225gm Rice
  • 2L Full Fat milk plus 200ml Double Cream

  • 125gm Sugar

  • 40gm Flaked Almonds for garnish

  • 20-25 Green Cardamom Pods

Step No 1

First of all wash the rice and soak for about 20 minutes. Then drain the soaking water.

Pour the milk and cream mixture in a pan. 

Add cardamom pods to the milk. 

Bring to a boil.

Step No 2

Add the drained rice to the pan and stir well.

Cook the rice for about 15 to 20 minutes. 

Every couple of minutes give it a stir to prevent rice from sticking at the bottom of the pan.

Add in the sugar. Stir until sugar is dissolved.

Cook the rice for about 5 more minutes to thicken. 

However, it will also thicken up as it cools, but you can loosen it up a bit by adding a little more milk.

Step No 3

Pour into a serving dish and sprinkle nuts on the top.
