Ingredients
- Milk – 500 ml
- Sugar – 1 tbsp
- Oranges – 2
- Cardamom powder – 1/8 tsp
Instructions
- Bring ½ litre milk to a boil. Reduce heat, add sugar and simmer on medium heat till the milk thickens and reduces to half. Sprinkle cardamom powder. Stir well. Remove and cool. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile peel the oranges. Remove the fibre and skin of each juicy orange segment. Take out the spiky orange pulp from each segment.
- Add the orange pulp to chilled payesh. (If you add orange pulp to hot milk it will curdle).
- Chill orange ki kheer in the refrigerator for an hour.
- Serve Bengali Kheer Kamla for dessert.
Notes
- You can add ½ a can of condensed milk to 500ml milk for a thicker consistency.
- Make sure you add the fruit pulp to cool/chilled milk. For a strong orange flavoured kheer, mix in the orange pulp to chilled milk and refrigerate overnight. Serve chilled the next day.
