Instructions
 

Prepare the Chena Dough

  • Take the chena and refined flour in a bowl. Gently mash them together until a smooth, pliable dough forms.

Cook the Chena Dough

  • Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Add the chena dough and stir continuously for about a minute until it lightly firms up. Remove from heat immediately.

Shape the Chena Balls

  • Roll the chena dough into small, uniform balls. Set aside.

Prepare the Kheer

  • In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat. Add the mawa, coconut, sugar, milk powder, and cardamom powder. Stir continuously to prevent sticking and lumps from forming. Bring to a gentle simmer until the mixture thickens slightly.

Combine and Garnish

  • Reduce heat to low. Gently add the chena balls to the kheer, ensuring they are fully coated in the creamy mixture. Stir gently. Remove from heat once the chena balls are heated through.

Serve

  • Garnish with strawberry jam or your preferred topping. Serve warm or chilled.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Kheer Mohan

  • For best results, use fresh, high-quality chena. If using store-bought, ensure it is well-drained.
  • Don't overheat the chena dough; it should just firm up, not brown.
  • Stir the kheer continuously to prevent burning and ensure a smooth consistency.
  • Adjust the sugar according to your preference. You can also add a pinch of nutmeg for extra warmth.
