I am beginning with a sweet kheer, which is an authentic Tamilnadu recipe.

Ingredients:

Raw rice- 1 cup

Ghee- half cup

Thick milk- 2 liters

Broken Cashew nuts- 2 tbsp

Raisins- 3 tbsp

Saffron- ¼ sp

Cardamom powder-1/4 sp

Sugar- 3 cups

Procedure:

Heat a pan and pour the ghee.

On slow fire, first fry the cashew nuts and raisins and take them away.

Add the rice and fry them to golden brown.

Heat a pressure cooker and pour the milk.

Add the fried rice with the ghee, saffron, and cardamom powder.

Mix well. Close with the lid and pressure cook the milk with the rice to one whistle on medium fire.

Then reduce the heat to very low and cook for further 25 minutes.

Open the pressure cooker, add the sugar and further cook for some minutes until you get a slight thickened consistency.
