Recipe | Jaggery Rice Pudding (Gur Ki Kheer)

Shop for Jaggery Powder

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup organic jaggery powder
  • 1/2 cup basmati rice
  • 4 cups whole milk
  • 1/4 cup mixed nuts (cashews, almonds, pistachios), chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder
  • 1 tablespoon ghee (clarified butter)
  • Saffron strands (optional, for garnish)
  • Raisins (optional, for garnish)
Instructions: Wash and Soak Rice:
  • Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in water for 20-30 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Prepare Jaggery Syrup:
  • In a saucepan, heat the whole milk over medium heat until it comes to a gentle boil.
  • Lower the heat and let the milk simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
  • In another pan, melt the ghee over low heat. Add the chopped nuts and roast until they turn golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
Cook Rice:
  • Add the soaked and drained rice to the simmering milk. Cook the rice on low heat until it becomes soft and the milk thickens, stirring occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan. This should take about 20-25 minutes.
Add Jaggery Powder:
  • Once the rice is cooked and the milk has thickened, add the organic jaggery powder to the pan. Stir well until the jaggery is completely dissolved and the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
Add Flavorings:
  • Add the cardamom powder to the kheer and mix well. This will impart a delightful aroma and flavor to the dish.
Garnish and Serve:
  • Garnish the Jaggery Rice Pudding with the roasted nuts, saffron strands (if using), and raisins (if using).
  • Serve the kheer warm or chilled, according to your preference.
Tips:
  • You can adjust the sweetness of the kheer by adding more or less jaggery powder according to your taste.
  • For a richer flavor, you can add a few drops of rose water or kewra water to the kheer.
  • If you prefer a thinner consistency, you can add more milk to the kheer while cooking.
