I have talked about fellow blogger Two Sleeves and her Indian cookbook for the pressure cooker before. Tonight I used her Rice Kheer recipe as a guide for making my Rice Kheer. I changed it up a bit because I just have to. It was delicious. Her recipe says it serves 6 but that would be very small portions, I would say 4.
I like mine thick but if you want to thin it out add more milk or even a bit of cream. You can eat this at any temperature and it works. Mine was just warm as I took the pressure cooker lid off after 5 minutes on keep warm, gave it a stir and put the lid back on with the cooker unplugged.
