Millets are great replacements for our staple grains of rice & wheat. They lend a huge variety to our palate, are easier to digest, and fill our mental ‘need’ for grains for a filling meal. Here we have used the vrat ke chawal, barnyard millet also known as Sama chawal. This millet can replace rice in your usual meal, in dosa-idli batters and here in dessert in place of rice!

Ingredients

  • Coconut milk: 4 cups
  • Sama Rice: ½ cup
  • Jaggery powder or syrup: ½ cup (or per taste)
  • Nuts for garnishing

 

Method

  • Wash the sama rice thoroughly with water.
  • Take sama rice and coconut milk in a steel wok and heat them up till the milk begins to boil.
  • Reduce to low flame and simmer the mixture till sama rice is completely cooked. This should take about 10-15 minutes. Remember to keep stirring at regular intervals.
  • Switch off the flame at desired consistency and let the kheer mixture cool down completely.
  • Once at room temperature, add jaggery powder to it and mix well. (Adding jaggery powder while the mixture is still hot can cause the milk to curdle).
  • Alternately, you could add jaggery syrup to the kheer mix while still hot.
  • Taste test for sweetness
  • Garnish with nuts and serve hot or set in fridge to cool
  • Enjoy your healthful kheer guiltfree!

You can take raw rice and presoak them for 1 to 2 hours and then boil them with coconut milk till you get desired consistency, it won't curdle.

Hi. The millets have to be added as-is or after soaking or cooking?
