How to make Custard Kheer Recipe Custard Rice Kheer Recipe with step by step pictures.
Hi buddies! Here is a simple custard kheer recipe for you. Kheer is normally made on any festival and occasion and also as an after meal dessert. Kheer and phirni are the popular dessert in north india. Payasam is also another version of kheer popular in south india. It too tastes delicious.
At my place kheer is the favorite after meal dessert. There are different version of kheer which includes chawal ki kheer, fruit kheer, kheer with condensed milk, makhane ki kheer, sabudane ki kheer, phirni, payasam and many more.
This recipe of custard kheer includes custard powder of vanilla flavor. You can also add khawa or condensed milk to the kheer. Cardamom gives a delectable flavor to the kheer. Usually saffron strands/kesar is used as a colouring agent for kheer but here the vanilla custard powder supply same colour to the kheer, so I have avoided using saffron strands. Kheer loaded with lots of dry fruits tastes luscious.
Rice is first washed and soaked for half an hour. The excess water is drain off and spread on a cloth to dry. The rice is roasted for few minutes on low fame and later on coarsely grinded. Roasting prevents forming lumps of rice when the grinded rice is added to boiling milk. Refrigerate the custard kheer and serve hot with puri. Puri is made up of maida dough. Make a roti with the help of dusting board and rooling pin and cut the roti with the cutter in small circles. Fry the puri and serve with chilled kheer.
