Cooking method
Khir is a dish related to desserts. It is eaten with pleasure by both adults and children. The dish is native to India, and is also widely distributed in Pakistan. Khir differs from the usual rice porridge in that the rice is very boiled. As a result of prolonged cooking, the dish acquires a light beige shade. It often resembles condensed milk in color.
In India, khir is an integral dish on the festive table. Ideally, this dish is prepared with whole milk with a high percentage of fat content.
Spices such as saffron and cardamom can also be added to khir. They give not only aroma and flavor, but also help to reduce the formation of mucus from rice and milk. For this purpose, some housewives recommend frying rice for a few minutes in a dry frying pan without adding oil. This will make the taste of the dish better.
In addition to all of the above, the dish is also healthy. Rice khir helps to remove excess salt from the body, to cope with edema.
