| This kheer was a constant of my childhood. I have savoured it hot, cold, with puris and numerous other ways one can imagine. My mum used to experiment with the consistency of the kheer and I think the thicker and creamier it was, the more delicious it tasted. |

|
| Ingredients |
|
2 cups uncooked rice, washed and soaked for 30 minutes, then drained
|
|
2 litres full cream milk
|
|
1 can condensed milk
|
|
2 cups sugar
|
|
few strands of saffron
|
|
2 tbsp milk masala |
|
|
| Method |
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan simmer milk, sugar and condensed milk on medium heat for about 20 minutes, bringing the mixture to a boil. Stir constantly to avoid burning. Add the rice, saffron and milk masala, reduce heat to low and simmer for an 1 hour, stirring constantly till the kheer thickens. Serve hot or chilled garnished with slivered nuts. |
|
| | Gel's Notes |
| The use of a heavy bottomed utensil is vital to avoid the rice and sugar from sticking and burning at the bottom. | | Light condensed milk can be substituted instead of regular condensed milk. | | Sugar can be added or lessened as per taste. | | Soaking the rice for 30 minutes prior to cooking it in milk, ensures that the kheer turns out to be smooth, soft and fluffy. | | More milk can be added if a thinner consistency is required. The kheer will thicken on chilling. | |
