Makhana is a well-known fasting ingredient that is widely enjoyed during Sawan. Here is an easy recipe to make makhana kheer at home.
Popped lotus seeds, 1/2 cup cashew nuts, 2 tsp ghee, rock salt, 1/2 tsp cardamom, 3 cups milk, sugar as per taste, dry fruits (chopped)
Roast the seeds and cashews in a pan with a little ghee and season with rock salt. As soon as it cools, take 3/4th of the mixture and grind it with some cardamom.
In a separate pan, bring 2-3 cups of milk to boil. Add sugar, ground makhana mixture, and stir well. Add the remaining roasted makhana and cashew.
Continue stirring until it thickens. The kheer can be served either hot or cold, garnished with chopped dry fruits.
