How to Make Delicious Kheer Using Premium Basmati Rice?

Role and Importance of Sweets in Culture

In India, sweets are the soul of festivals, as they convey prosperity, love, and new beginnings. Amidst all the sweets made in India, kheer made of rice is still the most favored one today. As per research, more than 70% of Indians make rice kheer for their special occasions. The taste and texture depend on the rice used.

Steps in Preparing Perfect Kheer

Step 1: Pick the Right Rice and Soak It Properly

Begin the preparation for your kheer by choosing the premium basmati rice by Oscar Basmati. Then soak the rice in water for about 20-30 minutes so that the rice gets softened.

Step 2: Cooking with Milk

The best way to make creamy kheer is by cooking it in full-fat milk and then letting it simmer for a while. But you have to make sure to keep stirring it from time to time until the milk reduces to an amount when it gets thick.

Step 3: Sweetening the Dish

Add sugar or jaggery as a sweetening agent. You can also use cardamom and mix some dry fruits too.

Checklist for Making Kheer

• Buy the premium quality basmati rice for the wonderful flavor of kheer.
• Good soaking of rice before cooking is recommended.
• Use full-cream milk for achieving a creamy texture.
• Add a topping of crushed cashews and pistachios.
• Serve it hot or chilled according to your choice.

Expert Tip: Get your grains dry-roasted in a spoonful of pure ghee briefly for two minutes before adding milk, as it gives them a delicious nutty scent.
