Ingredients
- Low-fat milk or almond milk, 3 cups
- Low-fat paneer (cottage cheese), 1 cup, grated
- Stevia, 2 tsp
- Cardamom powder, ¼ tsp
Method
- Pour low-fat milk or almond milk into a non-stick pan, and put on a low-medium heat.
- The milk should gently boil in the pan. Stir the milk now and then to avoid sticking to the pan's bottom.
- When the milk begins to boil constantly while stirring, gently mix in the grated low-fat paneer.
- Stir the mixture occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom and distribute the paneer evenly.
- Allow the mixture to boil for 10-12 minutes.
- After the mixture has simmered for a while, add the stevia. Adjust the quantity to get your desired level of sweetness.
- Add the cardamom powder. This will give the dish a lovely flavour and fragrance.
- Allow the kheer to cook for 2-3 minutes. Kheer should have a creamy consistency.
- Allow the kheer to cool down before serving.
Storage: Store any leftover paneer kheer in the refrigerator and consume within 2-3 days.
