Instructions
Preparation
- Heat a tsp of ghee and fry cashew nuts and raisins.
- Soak almonds in hot water, peel the skin and cut it into thin slices.
- Soak rice for half an hour.
Method
- Boil milk and add the soaked rice (drain the water) to the milk.
- Cook rice in the milk on low flames stirring it frequently so that it doesn't get burnt.
- When rice is cooked, mash it slightly with the ladle, then add sugar.
- When sugar dissolves, add cardamom powder, cashew nuts, raisins and almonds.
- Rice kheer is ready to be served hot or cold.
- In my house everybody prefers it cold, so I usually refrigerate it when it cools down.
