- 2 cups milk
- ⅛ cup sugar n
- ½ cup mango pulp
- 1 pinch saffron
- 1 tablespoon condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon ghee
- 5 cashews chopped
- chopped mangoes for garnish
- ¼ teaspoon cardamom powder optional
Instructions
- Chop mangoes roughly.
- Take it in a blender and make a puree without adding water. Measure and keep aside.
- Take basmati rice in a blender, grind it to a coarse mixture, set aside.
- In a tablespoon of warm milk add saffron and let it soak.
- Take milk in a vessel, add rice, then put a spoon inside the vessel (this is to avoid milk overflowing).
- Take a pressure cooker put the stand add water to it then place the vessel containing milk on it. Add saffron milk.
- Close with a lid and pressure cook for 15-20 minutes in low flame.
- Once pressure releases slowly open, then remove the spoon. You can see the rice has cooked now.
- Now transfer the milk to a heavy bottomed pan. Add sugar, it will become runny.
- Let it simmer for 5 minutes, then add condensed milk and switch off. Let it cool down.
- When it is cooled (can be slightly warm) add mango puree. Mix well. Add cardamom powder.
- Heat ghee then add cashews and fry till golden. Add it to the kheer.
- Add chopped mango pieces while serving.
- Garnish Mango Kheer and serve warm / chilled.
Notes
- Cooking rice – I usually grind rice little coarsely before cooking. It helps to cook faster and blend creamy with milk.
- Adding mango pulp – I always add mango puree only after kheer cools down. If added when hot, milk may curdle.
- Consistency – I make kheer slightly runny because it thickens after cooling. You can add little milk before serving if it looks too thick.
- Choice of mango – I always choose ripe sweet mango without fiber. Variety of mango makes big different in taste.
- Serving – You can serve it cold or warm. I like cold but some people enjoy warm specially in winter.
