Cooking instructions
* Step 1
To begin with: Measure the aforesaid quantity of the Quinoa, wash well & then, soak it for about a couple of hours time-
Strain it well & allow it to rest in order to organically dry up a bit, for around 30 mins time more
* Step 3
Next: Heat up a frying pan over the medium flame & add in some ghee to it- Add in the washed & well soaked & partially dried up quinoa to it & sauté until it naturally dries up in the heat & starts spluttering
* Step 4
Once it starts spluttering & turned lightish pale brown in its colour, add in some water to it, mix well- Cover & allow it to cook for about 15-20 mins time, while stirring occasionally in between- Add in a pinch of salt (Sendha Namak) to it as well
* Step 5
Simultaneously, boil the measured milk on the other oven with some split green cardamoms or cardamom powder, a bay leaf (optional) & bring to a rolling boil- Then, reducing the flame- Add in the sugar to it, mix everything well together until nicely combined, blended & well incorporated 👇🏻
* Step 6
Next: Checkout if the quinoa on the other hand is already well cooked & puffed up nicely or not- Turn off the flame at this point-
Now, add in the prepared fragrant milk to it & mix everything well together until nicely combined and well incorporated- Blended
* Step 8
Maintain the medium-low heat hereafter & again, let it cook for another 10-12 mins time while stirring occasionally in between- Do not cover it now as the milk might overflow in that case-
Maintaining the low heat cook it further until the milk & the cooked quinoa has thickened to form a nice kheer/pudding/porridge like consistency
* Step 9
Add in the finely chopped dry fruits at this stage, gently mix everything well together to get well blended-
Turn off the flame now & cover it back to allow it to rest in its standing position for another 10-15 mins time before serving it either hot or cold-
Garnish it your own way
* Step 10
Once the given period: You’d see that, it’s thickened even more & looks absolutely jaw dropping gorgeous & immensely enticing- Transfer it to the serving platters/bowl, to offer it to the lord/deity-
You can either have it as is or can choose to chill it in the fridge for sometime before having it yourself or with your family & friends- ENJOY
