The rich and creamy taste comes when we cook kheer on low heat. Thickening of milk gives a light golden colour to the kheer. You can choose any type of rice to cook kheer. The addition of nuts like almonds and raisins enhance its taste and texture. You should have patience and enough time to get a delightful kheer.
