Semolina Kheer

5 ingredients
5 steps

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup semolina also called coarse sooji or rava.
  • 1.5 cups milk - whole, 2% or 1%, either one
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 1/4 cup walnuts (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon ghee or unsalted butter

Directions

  1. 1
    Soak walnuts the night before if you can remember. If not, just soak them in hot water 10 min before making the kheer. Roughly chop the soaked walnuts.
  2. 2
    Heat ghee in a small, thick-bottomed saucepan. Keep the heat at low.
  3. 3
    Pour in the semolina and stir continuously till the semolina acquires a deep golden color. This takes about 10 minutes. But do not let the semolina become brown.
  4. 4
    Add milk, walnuts and stir continuously. After 3-4 minutes, the kheer will start to thicken. Turn the heat off. Its consistency is a personal preference. However please remember that this kheer thickens even as you plate it. So its best to leave it a little runny compared to what you would like.
  5. 5
    Mix honey into the kheer and stir well. Top with fruits of your choice or it tastes fantastic fruitless too. I personally love a topping combo of ripe mangoes and blueberries. Serve right away.
