Mango Vermicelli Kheer

Both my daughter & I love desserts; desserts fill us with glee!

She loves Kheer (Indian dessert- sweet Pudding) & Custard also like me!

One day, I had an idea- a dish that would be a happy combination! 

I added Mango Custard powder to my Vermicelli Kheer preparation!

My family loved my innovative Mango Vermicelli Kheer dish!

Now this dish appears often on our dining-table as per majority's wish!


On popular demand, here's the recipe!

Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 25 minutes
Serves 4 

Ingredients:

100 grams Vermicelli (Seviyan)
1/2 cup Water
1/4 cup condensed Milk (Optional)
2 cups Milk (If condensed Milk is used), else 3 cups Milk
5 tablespoons Sugar (If condensed Milk is used), else 10 tablespoons Sugar
3 tablespoons Mango-flavoured Custard Powder mixed in 3 tablespoons Milk
1/2 teaspoon Cardamom (Elaichi) powder
Dryfruits/Nuts/Cut-fruits for garnishing (Optional)

Method:

1. Boil the Vermicelli with Milk & Water for 10 minutes
2. Add the condensed Milk & Sugar & mix well, stirring for 5 minutes
3. Add the Custard powder mix and Cardamom powder and keep stirring for 10 minutes
4. Serve warm or else, serve chilled. Both taste great!
5. Add the Dryfruits.

Note:

1. You may increase the Milk/Water in case you wish thinner consistency.

2. Similarly, for thicker Kheer, add extra Custard powder and/or Vermicelli.

3. Change the flavour of the Custard-Powder and have a different flavored & colored Kheer!
    For example, adding Vanilla or Strawberry Custard powder, will give you that particular flavored    Kheer! 

4. You may use Rice in place of Vermicelli. In that case, use 50 grams Basmati or aromatic rice. Boiling rice will take extra time. 

5. Add extra Sugar in case you want it sweeter!

      We can have fresh Mango pulp too with Vermicelli, but that would be seasonal & dependent on Summer. Good that we can use Mango Custard Powder that is available 365 days of the year :)
