Ingredients

  • Moong Dal - ½ cup
  • Water - 1.25 cups
  • Jaggery - ¼ cup
  • Coconut Milk - ½ cup
  • Cardamom - 1
  • Ghee - 2 Tsp
  • Cashews - 5
  • Raisins - 1 tbsp

Instructions

  • Keep all the ingredients ready. Roast moong dal with ghee until nice aroma comes and pressure cook it for 4 whistles with 1.25 cups of water in medium flame.
  • In the meantime, ghee fry the cashews&raisins and keep it ready. Heat jaggery in a saucepan with water until it's immersed level. Once it melts completely, strains the jaggery water through a strainer to remove impurities and keep it ready. Open the pressure cooker once pressure released. Mash it with a laddle if required, but make sure Moong dal should be soft but not too mushy, so don't mash too much.
  • Now add filtered jaggery water to cooked moong dal and mix well. Also, add crushed cardamom. Now cook everything in a low flame for 3 to 5 minutes. Stir it occasionally while cooking in order to prevent the bottom from burning. Then add coconut milk and mix well.
  • Cook in low flame with occasional stirring until the kheer becomes slightly thick. Once everything comes together and when the kheer consistency is reached, add ghee fried cashews & raisins. Mix well and switch off the flame once done.
