Ingredients

  • 1 and ½ cups milk
  • 3 tablespoon sugar
  • 4 figs
  • 10 raisins
  • 2 tablespoon condensed milk
  • ¼ cup badam, cashews, pista powdered
  • 5 whole pista chopped
  • 1 teaspoon melted ghee
  • 1 pinch saffron

*Note: I used cashew, badam and pista

Instructions

  • Toast nuts till its slightly browned.
  • Then grind it to a coarse powder. I made it in bulk to store. I measured ¼ nuts powder and used it here.
  • Take milk in pan. Boil till it reduces a little.
  • Then add saffron strands, sugar and let it boil for a good 10 minutes in sim.
  • Now add condensed milk and nuts powder. Keep cooking in low flame.
  • Scrap the sides and keep mixing to avoid burning at the bottom.
  • Chop figs into small pieces.
  • Heat ghee in a tadka pan, add raisins and chopped figs fry for a minute.
  • Then add it to the milk nuts mixture. Keep cooking.
  • At one stage it will thicken and coat the ladle. That's the right stage. Switch off.
  • Garnish with chopped nuts and serve chilled.
  • Serve Dry Fruits Kheer chilled.

Notes

  • Choose good quality nuts – I usually pick fresh cashews, badam and pista. Old nuts give less flavor.
  • Coarse grind nuts – I have found coarse grind works best, don’t over grind or kheer become pasty.
  • Fry dry fruits lightly – I added raisins and figs in melted ghee for few seconds. Gives nice aroma and softens fruits.
  • Scrap sides while cooking – I usually scrap sides of pan so milk does not stick at bottom.
  • Adjust consistency – Kheer thickens as it cools, switch off when it coats ladle lightly. Simmer more if want thicker.
