Makhana Kheer recipe
Makhana
Kheer recipe is a healthy dessert that can be consumed during fast also. Try
this yummy sweet dish this Navratra. Makhana or Lotus seed or fox nut is a rich
source of calcium, protein and gluten free. Good food for weight loss. You can
eat them as a snack by roasting them in Microwave or pan for weight loss. You
can add little ghee if you are not on diet. Makhana Kheer is a simple recipe,
just like rice kheer. Some people use
whole Makhana in the Kheer. I have used them by crushing them, so they
get mixed well and give the kheer a creamy texture. So let us start.

Recipe ingredients:
1 liter
Gold Milk ( full cream )
2 cup Fox
nut
Sugar as
per taste
4-5
saffron threads ( optional )
Dry
fruits of your choice chopped
1/4
teaspoon cardamom powder

Recipe instructions:
Heat a
non-stick pan, add 1 teaspoon ghee and roast the fox seed on low flame for 5-6
minutes till they become crispy.
Let them
cool completely. Crush them after cooling and keep aside.
Take 1
liter milk in a vessel and boil it on high flame continuously stirring.
When it
starts boiling, add cardamom powder and chopped dry fruits.
If you
like dry fruits in crunchy form, roast them in ghee till they become light
brown.
My family
likes soft dry fruits, so I boil them with milk to make them soft.
When the
milk remains ¾ in quantity, add the fox nut and cook for 7-8 minutes.
Mix sugar
to taste and cook for more 7-8 minutes.
Turn off
the Gas. Delicious Makhana Kheer is ready to serve.
If you
like it cold, refrigerate it for 2-3 hours, garnish with pistachio and serve
chilled.
