It is a kind of a tradition in every indian house to have something sweet after having dinner or lunch. There has to be something sweet to enjoy.
Kheer being one of my favourites as a dessert. If you have loved the Phirni recipe I shared previously on the blog, I am sure you are going to love this as well.

While adding ground paste keep mixing it so that you can get smoothest kheer (Keep mixing it with one hand while pour the ground paste otherwise the ground rice will not be able to mix with the milk properly).
