    PinSweet Potato Kheer – A rich creamy kheer made with sweet potatoes tastes so delicious.It is also called Shakarkadi ki kheer in Hindi.

    Once when I was searching for sweet potato recipes had a chance to see this so thought should give this a try but after that totally forgot until I saw sweet potatoes last week.So I made poriyal for lunch and reserved a small one just for making this kheer and to share it here.

    This is the first time I am tasting this kheer and it was so creamy and delicious.The sweet potato adds a creaminess and natural sweetness to the kheer so adjust sugar accordingly.

    Notes

    • You can even add raw grated sweet potato and cook in milk but takes a little longer time and more milk so I pressure cooked for a whistle then cooked in milk.
    • You can use regular white sugar instead of cane sugar.
    • I used cows milk, use any milk which is creamy so that it is rich.
    • You can add cardamom powder if you like the flavour.
    • You can add chiroli nuts too.
