Ingredients
Serves 4
Method
- 1
Rinse Sanmati Bhagar and soak for 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- 2
Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed pan, add bhagar and sauté for 2 minutes on low flame.
- 3
Add milk and bring to a boil. Reduce flame and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 20–25 minutes.
- 4
When bhagar is cooked and milk has thickened, add sugar and cardamom. Mix well.
- 5
Garnish with nuts and saffron. Serve warm or chilled.
Notes
- Use full-fat milk for a richer, creamier kheer.
- Stir frequently to prevent the milk from sticking to the bottom.
- Perfect for fasting days—use rock salt if making a savory version.
