Healthy Maharashtrian Wheat kheer

Ingredients:

1) 2 cups wheat, soaked overnight in some water,

2) 1 tbsp ghee,

3) 1/2 litre milk,

4) 1/2 cup cashew nuts, some chopped some whole,

5) 2 tbsp raisins,

6) Few strands of saffron,

7)Grated Fresh Coconut

8) coarsed fennel seeds

9)Cardmon Powder


Method:

  • Drain wheat and grind in a grinder to form a thick coarse. now take a whistle into the cooker .
  • Then Heat a pan, add ghee, chopped and whole cashew nuts, raisins and ground wheat.
  • Cook on a low-medium flame for 4-5 minutes.
  • Then add wheat which we had cooked into the cooker till wheat turns pinkish.
  • To this add milk, saffron,coconut,fennel seed(coarsed) and mix well and bring to boil.
  • When kheer has thickened, put off the flame and add jaggery(or sugar) to it.
  • Keep stirring, since kheer is still hot jaggery would get dissolved in it quickly.
  • Serve hot or chilled. Garnish with some more dryfruits.

TIP:
Add jaggery at the end of the recipe, since there is a possibility that milk would curdle when milk is added to the jaggery.
