Deepavali Shubhakankshalu (Happy Diwali!)

Happy Deepavali (Belated) to all of you! Hope all of you have a properous and happy year!

Of course Deepavali is not the same without the sweets. So here I am writing up my two cents on my version of Kheer.

This is a pretty simple recipe and I hope it makes it to round two of JFI - Diwali Treats hosted by Vee at Past, Present and Me.

Kheer

Ingredients
1 cup cooked rice
1 cup sugar
1 litre milk
a few cashews- chopped.
a few sultanas
1 tbsp ghee

Method
  1. Bring the milk to a boil. Add sugar and then reduce to a simmer.
  2. Add the rice to the milk. Let it simmer for about 45 mins to an hour until the mixture thickens.
  3. Meanwhile, heat the ghee in a small fry pan. Add the cashews and when slightly brown, add the sultanas.
  4. Add this to the chopped nuts and sultanas to the Kheer. Voila! There you have Kheer!
