Khir (Rice Pudding with Cardamom and Nuts)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Serves: 10 to 12
Preparation time:
Ingredients:
8 cups (2 L) milk
1/2 cup (125 ml) uncooked basmati or other long-grained white rice
1 cup (250 ml) sugar
1/2 cup (125 ml) finely chopped unsalted blanched almonds
1/4 tsp (1 ml) ground cardamom
1 tsp (5 ml) rose water (optional)
1/4 cup (60 ml) unsalted, sliced blanched almonds, lightly toasted
Bring the milk to a boil over high heat in a 5 to 6 quart (5-6 L) saucepan, stirring constantly to prevent a skin from forming on top. Reduce the heat to moderate and continue to boil for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the rice and cook an additional 30 minutes, stirring frequently, until the rice has almost disintegrated. Add the sugar and finely chopped almonds and stir for 15 minutes over low heat until the pudding is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon heavily. Remove from the heat, add the cardamom and optional rose water, and pour into a 7 by 12 inch (20x30 cm) baking dish, spreading it with a spatula so the top is smooth. Sprinkle with the toasted almonds and refrigerate for at least four hours, until it is thoroughly chilled and somewhat firm to the touch.

The cooking method is same as making Rice Khir. But when making sabu dana and sevaiya khir, you'll have to boil sabu dana and sevaiya in water before adding it into the boiled milk.

Sabudana Kheer
Ingredients:
1 cup sabudana
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 litre milk
4 cardamom pods
A pinch of saffron (optional)
Method:
Soak the sabudana in water for 15 minutes.
Boil milk with the sugar, cardamoms and add sabudana after draining out the water.

Sevian ki Kheer (Vermicelli Pudding)
Serves 6.
1 stick butter
6 oz. sevian, broken into 3inch pieces
4 cups of milk
1 pint whipping cream
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup sugar
4 almonds (optional) peeled and thinly sliced
Melt butter in a large heavy bottomed pot. If you use a light pot, the milk will likely burn at the bottom. Over low heat stir vermicelli into butter until it turns lightly brown. Pour in the milk and stir over medium heat until the milk boils. Put in the raisins, almonds and sugar. Continue to cook under low heat for 10 minutes. Add whipping cream and continue to cook for a couple of minutes. Serve hot or chill in fridge for an hour before serving.

simmer milk (1 litre) until reduced to 3/4, add sabudana or sevainya(1 cup) to the milk & simmer until they r cooked stirring in between. Add sugar(acc to taste).bring to a boil. if the consistency is too thick add some milk, it should be of the consistency of thick custard. if low calorie is desired do not simmer too much & can add boiled sabudana or sevaiyan. Garnish with chopped almonds & powdered cardamom. saffron can be sprinkeld if desired or added to the boiling milk. serve warm or cold.
