Cooking instructions

* Step 1

To make this kheer we first need to make a soft dough of rice flour. For the same, boil 2 cups of water for every one cup of rice flour with little salt and ghee. Add in the rice flour slowly while stirring and cook till it forms a dough. Alternatively, make the rice flour dough just the way you would make dough for Roti by adding hot water little by little.To the rice flour add some salt and on the side boil some water.

* Step 2

Add hot water little by little and mix using a fork or spoon since it would be too hot to use your hand. To the dough add in a spoon or two of powdered sugar. This makes the rice balls sweet and tasty.Make very smalls balls(grape size) and to make them you can grease your hands with ghee or water. Once done, steam the rice balls for five minutes by placing them in a perforated plate or vessel over steaming water. You can also use a pressure cooker without weight and steam them for exactly 5 mins

* Step 3

A very important step, Skipping this makes the rice flour balls hard and chewy in the milk.While steaming the balls of the dough let the milk simmer on the other side. Add sugar, cardamom, and grated coconut.
