>> Sunday, May 2, 2010 –
Cranberry,
Desserts,
Orange Zest,
Rice kheer
I know many of us love Rice Kheer right. If so try this twist to the rice kheer which adds more flavor to the usual one. Zesty taste of orange with cranberry makes the rich rice kheer more delicious with wonderful taste. I promise once you try this, you will surely like it...and will be doing it more often.

Zesty Cranberry Rice Dessert
Ingredients :
Milk - 4 cups
Basmathi Rice - 1 tbsp
Condensed milk - 2 1/2 tbsp ( Increase it if you like more sweet)
Dried Cranberry - 1 tbsp
Orange juice - 2 tbsp
Orange zest - 1/2 tbsp


Method :
1. Cook the dried cranberry in the orange juice until all the moisture is absorbed and cranberry gets plumped up.
2. Keep aside.
3. Boil the milk in the heavy vessel by adding washed basmathi rice. Stir once in a while and cook until the quantity reduces by 2 cup.
4. Add the condensed milk and put off the flame.

Serve chilled and enjoy the delicious twisty kheer......by saying Mmmmmmmm ......

awesome clicks pavitra, they make me drool. have never tasted cranberries as they aren't available in india. the recipe looks tempting for sure.
Dear Pavithra
How are you? It has been ages, I read your blogs. Now I am back home and trying to find out what all great dishes you cooked in my absence.
I like this kheer.
Kheer or payasam is a general dish at Bong homes and this will be a great variation for me.
I feel good that you liked my posts on Roman holidays..will post more on great lakes and Venice soon.
Have a nice weekend..
Amazing presentation and photos! The recipe's quite different and revolutionary. I bet it tastes sensational too, can't wait to try this out! If you don't mind, I would like to guide Foodista readers to this post. If you could please just add the foodista widget to the end of this post and it's all set, Thanks! Keep it up! :-)
Very unique recipe - never thought of the use of cranberries in a rice dessert.
