Makhana kheer is made with fox nuts (makhana) simmered in milk to which sugar, ghee and dry fruits are added. But for this recipe, the refined sugar is swapped with the earthy jaggery, and the cardamom boosts the entire flavour of the kheer. The makhana are roasted in ghee, pounded, and simmered in the thickened milk. Serving the kheer in mini cups makes it a portioned delight, perfect for festive occasions.
