Brown rice kheer

The brown rice kheer enhanced with Indian spices like saffron makes for a healthy and delicious treat. The brown rice breaks down much better than white giving the kheer a lovely creamy texture. Brown rice is very nutrient-dense with a high amount of dietary fibre. It can be consumed by people on a weight loss diet too.

  • Garnish it with almonds (optional). Serve hot or chilled.
