#bandhan - Kheer or Pudding are everyone's favourite dessert. In fact they are prepared in many of the Indian festivals. So let's come enjoy some Pasta Kheer for a change.

This dessert is not much popular, but it is made in the similar way as we make Rice Kheer, Seviyan (Vermicelli) or Sooji Halwa (Semolina). I have used whole wheat pasta, a healthy option, but it an be done with any macaroni too.

I have used evaporated milk instead of condensed milk, along with some fresh milk to thicken the kheer. You can increase the quantity of it according to your preference. Serve it at room temperature or chilled, garnished with some chopped nuts, saffron and rose water.
