Ingredients
  • ½ tbsp almonds slivered (soaked over-night in water)
  • 1 tsp anise seeds/ fennel seeds
  • ½ tbsp cashew nuts (roasted) chopped
  • 125 mls milk
  • Oil for shallow frying
  • ½ tbsp pistachio (chopped)
  • ½ tbsp raisin
  • 1/2 cup rice
  • ½ tsp saffron
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp sugar (you can adjust it to suit your taste)
  • Water (for the batter)
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
Instructions

Wash the rice well.Boil the milk (on high flame) in a thick bottomed wide-mouthed container stirring it continuously so that it does not burn at the bottom.Once it is boiled, lower the heat.

Remove 2 tbsp of milk in a small cup and add saffron to it.

Let it soak at least for 10-15 minutes.Meanwhile, add washed rice to the boiled milk. Increase the heat again and keep stirring it till the milk starts to boil again.Lower the heat and after 15 minutes add the soaked saffron milk.

Let the milk simmer (stirring it occasionally) till it reduced to half the quantity.Turn off the heat and add sugar, cashews, almonds, pistachio and raisins.

Serve hot or chill it before serving.Note Keep aside a tsp of each of the dry fruits to garnish on the top while serving.(The kheer will take approximately 45 - 50 minutes to cook)Making Poodas

Mix all the ingredients, except water. Bring them all together by gradually mixing in the water. The consistency should not be thin but of a pouring consistency.

Heat a tawa (skillet) and pour 2 tsp oil.

Pour a 2 tbsp of batter over the heated oil.

Spread it to a round shape but do not make it very thin. Cook it on medium-low heat. Once the top is done, flip it to cook the other side. If the oil seems less, pour a little bit around the edges.This batter should yield almost 8 poodas
