Microwave Rice Kheer.


Kheer is a South Asian rice pudding made by boiling rice, it's flavored with cardamon (Elaichi), saffron(kesar) and nuts. It's served during a meal or after a meal as a dessert. It can be served hot as well as cold. Kheer is a sweet dish prepared in many household across all over the world, Traditionally Kheer is prepared on chulla but theses days it's very hard to find chulla, so today I am going to show u the easiest method to prepared Kheer in Microwave. 

There are different varieties of Kheer and multiple ways to make it. Today I am making Rice Kheer. When I was a kid, I fell in love with Rice Kheer, after I had the kheer made by my mom. It reminds me of my mom whenever I make it . I still remember when i was a kid, she used to make it every weekend for me, and I loved to eat  till last spoon. Today, I am going to share my Mom's recipe with you guys. Just try it once and you guys gonna love it. She used to prepared on stove, but I hate to stand and keep string Kheer until it's done. So I tried the same recipe  in microwave and it came out well and tastes delicious.

Let's move on to Instructions of Making Rice Kheer:-

Take five cups of whole milk (Full fat milk) in microwave safe bowl.
 Heat milk in the microwave for 8 to 10 minutes or until, it  boil ( boiling timing might be vary, it depends on milk temperature).  mean time wash and rinse rice.  
 Once it is boil completely , take out from microwave and add rice into the milk and give a stir.
     heat in the microwave at power level 50% for 5 minutes, after 5 minutes take it out and add saffron strings into the Kheer 
   keep it back into the microwave for another 10 minutes at power level 30% after 10 minutes take it out and give a stir.
  put it back again for 20 minutes at power level 20%, after 15 minutes you will see the difference in color of your milk.
   Take  milk powder in a bowl and add milk into it and mix it well until no lumps and add that milk powder and milk mixture into the kheer and give a stir.                 
heat the kheer in the microwave for 5 minutes at power level 50%
once it is done  add fresh crushed cardamom into  kheer and mix it well.
 again heat for 5 minutes at power level 50% , after 5 minutes finally we will add sugar and give a complete stir.
 heat your Kheer in microwave until it boil and its ready to be served and add few nut powder, saffron strings and silver foil for garnishing.


Note:-
Color of the Rice Kheer is depends upon the quality of Saffron, so I suggest use good quality of saffron.
If you don't want to add milk power then you have to heat your kheer another 10 more minutes at power level 20%.
