sooji kheer or rava kheer recipe with step by step photos – a quick and easy kheer made with semolina/rava.

here's another easy dessert recipe for the festive occassion of diwali. like i had mentioned in my paneer kheer post, that i will be adding some quick and easy diwali sweets recipes.

the sooji kheer recipe gets done in about 20 minutes and is so simple that even a newbie can make it easily. i usually make this kheer like the way i make vermicelli (seviyan) kheer.

this semolina pudding is easily digestible and works good even as a baby food, if you don't add chopped dry fruits. instead just add ground dry fruits powder.

i keep the consistency a bit thin and not thick like a porridge. but if you like a slightly thick porridge consistency, then do simmer for more time. in this case add less sugar than what is mentioned in the recipe. while making kheer, at times, i add some extra ghee. however you can reduce the the amount of ghee.

the rava kheer also works extremely good as an after dinner dessert. you can serve the sooji kheer hot, warm or chilled.

step by step rava kheer or sooji kheer recipe:

1. heat ghee in a thick bottomed pan or sauce pan.

2. add cashews and fry them in the ghee for about 1 minute on a low flame.

3. add sooji or rawa.

4. saute and stir continuously.

5. the sooji would start to release its aroma. you will also see ghee separating from the sooji. takes about 3 to 4 mins on low flame. stir continuously so that the sooji gets fried evenly. the cashews would also become golden by then.

6. add milk and stir.

7. add sugar and stir again. if using edible camphor, add now. i generally add edible camphor, when i am offering the sweet as bhog or naivedyam to our beloved deities.

8. stir and bring the sooji kheer to a gentle simmer.

9. lastly add cardamom powder, raisins and chironji (optional).

10. stir the kheer and switch off the flame.

11. serve sooji kheer hot or warm or refrigerate & then serve chilled. you can also have it with pooris.
