You can never run out of enough ideas for dessert. Desserts make any meal special and festive. When it comes to Indian desserts, they are often characterized as rich, indulgent, and full of aromatics. Using fruits and vegetables in desserts isn’t uncommon in Indian cuisine. While most gourds and carrots are usual favorites, the others are worth exploring too. One such vegetable is the cauliflower. Cauliflower is a really versatile vegetable – from sinful gobi paratha to crisp tandoori gobi or delicious cauliflower pilaf, there are tons of interesting cauliflower recipes that are my favorite. Well, cauliflowers aren’t exactly the first thing that comes to our minds when we think Indian dessert (leave alone kheer). So I won’t blame you guys for being a little confused about this dish. However, I urge you to try this cauliflower kheer recipe out and trust me you’ll both thank me and lick off the last bits of your dessert bowls as you finish the kheer – it is a total treat.
Pro Tips To Make Gobi Ki Kheer:
Full cream (fat) milk is the best to make any kind of kheer or Indian pudding. The full-fat milk gives a thick and luscious texture to the kheer. The Indian desserts like kheer are never done in a short span of time. They require patience and labor of love. So until the milk reduces almost to half the original amount and thickens nicely the kheer is not ready. Always cook kheer over low heat and in a heavy bottom deep saucepan. Be generous while adding cardamom, saffron, and dry-fruits in kheer. The richness and aroma in the Indian desserts come from all the mentioned ingredients. Last but not least, keep on stirring the kheer at regular intervals to collect the cream (malai) from the sides of the pan and combine it back into the milk.
