Ingredients For Sabudana Kheer
- 1 litre milk
- ½ cup sabudana/tapioca/saabakki/sago
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 tbsp. cashews
- 1 tbsp. almonds
- 1 tablespoon raisins
- 1 tbsp. pistachios
- ¼ tsp. cardamom powder
Steps In Making Sabudana Kheer
- Soak sabudana in water for an hour. Drain if any excess water is left.
- In a heavy bottom or a non stick kadai add milk and bring it to a boil.
- Now add soaked sabudana and keep stirring continuously as sabudana has a tendency to stick to the pan.
- Cook for at least 7-8 minutes or until the sabudana turns translucent.
- Now add the chopped dried nuts, raisins and sugar. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until the sugar is properly dissolved and the kheer has thickened.
- Finally add some cardamom powder.
- Serve hot or cold.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
Recipe Notes For Sabudana Kheer
- Always add sabudana in hot milk. If you add it in the cold milk then it might curdle.
- After adding sabudana never cook it on high flame as sabudana has the tendency to stick to the pan.
- As the kheer cools down, it will thicken more, so switch off the flame little before your desired consistency.
