Kheer

I had sent kheer recipe to my brother sometime in 2008. He lost the recipe and asked me again. I somehow found an old email that had the recipe in it. Here it is:

I haven't made kheer in a while. Might pickup some milk on the way home and make some tomorrow. Teh recipe would be tested as well.

Kheer recipe: I have cups measure so you may want to measure the milk with cups/or katori or small bowl. Usually for 1 litre milk we need 1/2 cup rice.

1/2 cup rice
6 cup. milk
4 cardamon pods (grind them)
1 cup. sugar
1/2 cup slivered blanched almonds
2 tablesppon cashews chopped
(Also need these that are to be added later: 1 can evaporated milk (or condensed milk, add a bit less sugar then), 2 tablespoons raisins)


Put all of these in a thick bottom pan (except raisins and evap milk) I think 3 packets milk is 4 litres so u may need about 2 cups of rice. Adjust the sugar and nuts accordingly. Put it on medium heat. Watch that once the milk starts boiling simmer it.

Check rice after abt 20 mins. If almost plump, add 1 can of evaporated milk (or condensed milk is ok too). And after about 45 mins it should be almost ready. Add raisins. About 1/2 cup for 2 liters milk.
