Now to the recipe..

[Preparation Time-5 mins : Cooking Time- 30 mins ]

Paneer Kheer Ingredients:

• Milk – 1 litre
• Crumbled Paneer – 1/2 cup
• Sugar – 1/2 cup
• Roughly chopped almonds/Pista – 1/4 cup
• Cardamom powder – a generous pinch

Method:

• Heat a litre of milk in a sauce pan. Bring it to a boil and simmer for about 10 mins until the milk reduces to half the amount. Now add the sugar to it and mix well.

• Now add crumbled paneer to it and mix well. Add the roughly chopped nuts. I just used my pestle and mortar to crush roughly.

• Let the milk boil in simmer for a couple of minutes so that the paneer gets cooked. Finally add the cardamom powder and mix well. Switch off the flame.

Thats it! Yummy Paneer Kheer ready!

Serve warm or chilled as per your choice.

Tips:

1. I have used fresh home made paneer. So used it as it is. If u are using store bought u can either crumble it or grate it and use.
2. U can use saffron strands, rose water if u prefer for more flavour.
3. Adjust sugar according to your preference. This amount was just right.
