INGREDIENTS FOR Sabudana Kheer recipe

HOW TO MAKE sabudana kheer

quick steps :

• Soak 1 Cup Sabudana or Tapioca Pearls in water for 2 hours.
• Boil the Milk at medium flame. Boil it until it reduces to 30% and become thick. The consistency of the milk will become thick.
• When done, Add Soaked Sabudana (Tapioca pearls) in the milk.
• Stir it and cook for 10 minutes. Keep stirring for every 1 to 2 minutes. This is to prevent milk and Sabudana from catching at the bottom.
• After 10 minutes, Sabudana pearls should have blended well in milk. Once the Sabudana Kheer becomes thick, Add pieces of dry fruit, cardamom powder and 1/4 cup of sugar ( or as per your taste) in it.
• Keep stirring it for two to three minutes more at low flame.
• Turn off the gas and leave it for 2 – 3 minutes.
• OPTIONAL : After two – three minutes; add Saffron or Kewra or vanilla essence in it for delectable taste and fragrance. And Mix it Properly. You can skip this step, I usually prefer to add some essence in it to change the smell of sabudana, as my family members don’t like the smell of it.
• Sabudana Kheer or Tapioca / Sago  Kheer is ready. Garnish it with Cardamom (Ilaichi) Powder or chopped almonds, pistachios or saffron flakes. Serve it hot or cold as per your wish. Click here to know about more vrat recipes in India.

TIPS :

Do keep in mind, that the milk should be thick after boiling which helps to make creamy and more tasty Kheer.

If you like Sabudana Smell and Taste, do not over stuff it with Dry fruits, saffron or Kewra essence otherwise Kheer looses the taste of Sabudana.

After adding Ingredients in milk, stir it after every 1 to 2 minutes bringing the spoon to the bottom of the pan which prevents Sabudana Kheer from catching at the bottom.

Chilled Sabudana Kheer is more Delicious but you can also serve it hot in winters.
