Basmati Rice Pudding/Kheer

Kheer is a creamy thick South Asian sweet dish, made by boiling rice or broken wheat with milk and sugar, and flavoured with cardamom, raisins, saffron, pistachios, almond. It is typically served during a meal or also consumed alone as a stand alone savory.

Kheer can also be made using vermicelli as a base instead of grains. In India, many replace sugar with Jaggary to add sweetness and flavor to Kheer which also tastes amazing. But I did a simple Basmati Rice Pudding for this Eid.

  1. Wash and drain the rice and let dry for 15-30 minutes

  4. Add the condensed milk, sugar, raisins, and nuts. Stir till the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens.

  6. You can also serve Kheer chilled. I personally love it more when it's cold. But it depends on your desire.
