Karan Tripathi (Food Fanatic)Simplest pudding of all time: Phirni
Classic Indian rice pudding, Phirni, banks upon the simplicity of flavours of the handful of ingredients that go into making it. Commonly prepared in Northern India, especially on the festival of Eid, Phirni is a creamy dessert made with ground rice and milk. Traditionally served in shikoras i.e. earthen clay pots, Phirni is flavoured with saffron and/or cardamom and is garnished with dried fruits.
