#WinterRecipes
This special and unique sweet dish is a traditional kheer of farmers of Assam, my native place. A special kind of rice which grows only in winters in locals(bherapawa) is used to make this kheer. It is generally served as breakfast . This kheer has some medicinal value also with the addition of garlic and methi(fenugreek seeds). I don't have that variety of rice, so I made this with Jesmine Rice(which resembles bherapawa).

Steps

45 minutes

1

Soak rice and fenugreek seeds together overnight or atleast 2 hours.
2

Take a saucepan and put soaked rice,salt and methi seeds.
3

Add 2 cups of water and start cooking.
4

Add bay leaves and crushed garlic.
5

Cook until rice become soft.
6

Stir with a whisk to mash the rice.
7

Now add milk and mix well.
8

I always add milk when rice cooks completely.
9

If you add milk at the beginning of the cooking rice will take longer time to soft.
10

Add grated jaggery and mix.

Now check the sweet level. You can add more jaggery if you like more sweet.
12

When the kheer comes to a desired consistency remove from heat.
13

Garnish with some grated jaggery.
14

Serve warm or room temperature.

The aroma of methi with garlic is giving unique flavour to the kheer.
