An Indian sweet and delicious dessert made with sweetened condensed milk, rice, milk and chopped nuts

Method:
  1. Wash rice and pressure cook in milk for 10 minutes (or cook on slow fire, till rice is soft).
  2. Add condensed milk and cook for another 5 to 7 minutes, stirring continuously, until the kheer reaches a desired consistency.
  3. Remove from fire.
  4. Serve garnished with nuts and cardamom powder.
  5. If kheer is served chilled, keep it a little sweeter because cold kheer tastes less sweet than hot kheer.
    Serves: 8
    Preparation time: 25-30 minutes

Tip of the week
Cooking:

Place tomatoes in hot water for 5-7 minutes, before using for easier peeling and better taste in any recipe where tomatoes are required to be cooked.
Health:
Did you know that cleaning your inner ear with cotton swabs could actually push wax up against the eardrum, decreasing your hearing ability? It is best to clean only the outside of the ears and let wax build-up naturally fall out of the ear canal.

Cookery term
Stirring:

Mixing with a circular movement, using a spoon or fork.
