Oats & Gulkand Kheer

Dry roast the oats for a minute or till you get a nice aroma coming through. Keep it aside. Bring the milk to a boil and add sugar, gulkand, cardamom powder and the oats.

Keep simmering on a medium flame till it is reduced and becomes fairly thick. Add the rose water and keep aside to cool down. Then refrigerate till serving time.

Garnish with chopped mixed nuts, rose petals and saffron. Serve this chilled kheer in individual bowls / short glasses as an after meal dessert or whenever you feel like. It also tastes delicious with poori or paratha.
