A porridge or “kheer” is best eaten chilled.
The season of mangoes is a treat for HEALTHY dessert lovers. That is because the sweetness of sugar can be replaced by just adding a good quantity of juicy naturally ripened mangoes.
Just like in this recipe we have not used any sugar. Of course while serving this delectable dessert you can add a drizzle of maple syrup or honey to your liking.
Ingredients
2 cups ripe Alphonso Mango puree ( freshly made)
1 cup fox nuts
1tsp clarified butter/ghee
2 tbsp Cashewnuts
3 cups milk of choice
1 tbsp milk powder (optional)
A few cardamoms
Method
In a hot pan melt the ghee & toast the Cashewnuts till light brown remove & keep aside
In the same pan roast the fox nuts on medium heat till they turn crisp. Remove & keep aside
Once fox nuts are cooled pulse grind the fox nuts, Cashewnuts & cardamom to a coarse powder.
Now add 3 cups of milk in the pan & bring to boil.
Add milk powder & keep stirring. Boil for around 10 minutes stirring continuously.
To this milk add the freshly made mango puree & cook on low heat for 5 minutes.
The milk will turn slightly thick.
To this milk add the fox nuts, cashew nuts powder & mix well.
Cook for 7 to 10 minutes. Now the porridge will turn thick & creamy.
Adjust the consistency to your liking by adding more milk (if you don’t like the porridge too thick)
Now remove the kheer from pan & cool to room temperature. Later refrigerate it & serve chilled.
