For a tasty and healthy vrat ki kheer, heat milk in a kadhai. While the milk is heating, wash and drain the samak rice (barnyard millet), and chop some almonds, pistachios, and cashews. Once the milk starts boiling, add the samak rice and let it simmer until samak ke chawal gets tender & cooked. |

Meanwhile, in a separate pan, melt jaggery in water and bring it to a single boil and then remove and keep aside. Once the samak chawal is cooked and the milk has thickened like a pudding add the chopped nuts and cardamom powder. Mix them, remove from heat and let it cool down completely. When the kheer reaches room temperature, mix in the jaggery syrup, and your perfect vrat ki kheer is ready. Enjoy!! |
