Ingredients

▢ Full fat milk â€“ 1 litre
▢ Sugar â€“ 1/2 cup
▢ Cardamom powder â€“ 1/4 teaspoon
▢ Saffron strings â€“ a few strands
▢ Cashewnuts â€“ 10
▢ Raisins â€“ 15
▢ Ghee â€“ 3 tablespoons

Instructions

▢
Boil the milk in a pan on medium flame. When it comes to a nice boil, lower the flame and cook till it reaches 3/4th of its original quantity. Keep stirring in between to prevent sticking. It will take around 18-20 minutes.
▢
Once done, switch off the flame. Heat 2 tablespoons of ghee in another pan on medium flame. Add the grated apples and cook them on a low to medium flame. The apples will start releasing water.
▢
Saute the mixture till it becomes little dry and water is fully absorbed. Heat 1 tablespoon of ghee in a small tadka pan. Add the cashewnuts and raisins and saute till light golden colour. Set them aside.
▢
Once the apple mixture becomes dry, add the sugar and mix well. The mixture will become watery. Keep cooking on a medium flame for 3-4 minutes till the sugar is fully dissolved. Switch off the flame.
▢
Let the mixture cool down completely. Add the cooled and cooked apple mixture to the milk and boil the kheer on a low flame for 5-7 minutes. Add saffron strings and cardamom powder. Mix well.
▢
Cook for another 2 minutes. Add fried cashewnuts and raisins and mix well. Switch off the flame. Delicious apple kheer is ready to be served. Serve hot, warm or chilled and enjoy as a after meal dessert or as a filling fasting dish.
