This is a simple yet filling and nutritious recipe mainly for kids. I made this recipe for the first time when my elder son got a severe stomach upset and vomiting.He refused to eat anything and so I made this to soothe his tummy and at the same time provide him with some energy. So without too much ado, let us progress to make this simple sabudana (sago or tapioca pearls) kheer.
