Hyderabadi Gil E Firdaus or Wedding Special Kheer

#fest #cookpadindia This is synonymous with Hyderabad City. This Dessert is the fondest memory that one can associate with this place. An extremely delectable, melt in mouth, lipsmacking dessert that will leave you licking your spoons literally. It is the most loved and sought-after one that is made on all important occasions and marriage ceremonies. It is a very rich one with Ghee, Dry fruits and nuts along with Khoya or Mawa and Condensed milk too. It does not call for the use of Bottle gourd in it at all. In this authentic recipe, only Basmati rice, Ghee and other ingredients as mentioned already are used. Gil E Firdaus is usually mistaken for the Kheer with grated Bottle gourd which is called as Kaddu Ki Kheer. Infact dry rose petals and Pineapple chunks are used in garnishing along with Silver leaf. So here's a toast to Hyderabad's awesome Dessert. Enjoy!
