Badam Kheer/Almond Kheer is one of the popular drink in India. It is one of our family’s favourite drink too. My mom loves it. I was just thinking about her when I made this for an afternoon lunch. I invited my friends for lunch and they loved it for dessert. It is very easy to make and a rich and yummy dish to serve. Here you go…
Ingredients:
- Almonds/Badam - 1/2 cup
- Milk - 4 cups
- Condensed milk - 1 can
- Cardamom - 3 count
- Saffron - 3 to 4 strands
Method of Preparation:
- Soak almonds overnight or in hot water for 2 hours.
- Add milk to a thick bottomed vessel and heat it to boil.
- Keep on stirring in-between to avoid sticking at the bottom.
- When it come to boil, lower the flame and add the condensed milk according to your taste. First add half a can, mix and check for sweet. Add more if you want.
- Keep on stirring till the milk reduces to 1/3 of the quantity.
- In between drain the soaked almonds and peel the skin off and grind it to a paste along with some milk.
- Add the ground almond paste to the reduced milk and let it boil for a minute and reduce the flame.
- Allow the mixture to cook for 3 to 4 minutes. It should not become thick.
- Remove from heat and let it cool.
- Add ground cardamom and saffron strands and refrigerate.

Serve chill…
