Ingredients

Broken Basmati Rice (Tukda Rice)	1/4 Cup	Full Cream Milk	1 Liter
Milk Powder	1/4 Cup	Saffron / Kesar	40 - 50 Strands
Sugar	1/2 Cup	Almonds, chopped	10 - 12
Green Cardamom	5 - 7	Raisins	1 Tablespoon
Cashews, Chopped	10 - 12

Direction To Make

Wash and soak the broken rice in water for about 1/2 hour.
After 1/2 hour remove all the water from the rice and keep the soaked rice separate.
In a large pan, boil the milk over medium heat while stirring occasionally. When the milk gets hot, take 1 tablespoon of hot milk in a small bowl and add saffron and mix well, keep it aside for later use. Continue to boil the milk, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile chop the almonds and cashews, remove the green cardamom skin and crush the cardamom seeds when the milk is boiling.
When the milk starts boiling, add soaked rice and milk powder to it and mix well.
Cook it on a medium flame for about 12 - 15 minutes, while occasionally stirring it well. Stir it every 1-2 minutes so that the milk does not burn from the bottom and the cream does not set to the surface but mixes in the milk.
Add dry fruits like raisins, almonds and cashews. Keep some to garnish. Mix well and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring every 1 - 2 minutes.
Add saffron milk mixture and crushed green cardamom and mix well. Continue to cook for about 6 - 7 minutes, stirring occasionally. By this time the rice becomes soft and the milk also becomes thick.
Add sugar and mix well. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring continuously until the sugar dissolves completely.
Saffron rice kheer is ready. Turn off the gas and transfer the kheer to the serving bowl. Garnish the kheer with dry fruits.
Either serve hot or let cool in the fridge. Kheer can be eaten hot or cold.
