Method

  1. Soak the kodo millet in water for about 30 minutes, then drain well.
  2. Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pan on low flame.
  3. Add the soaked kodo millet and roast lightly for a minute to bring out its aroma.
  4. Pour in the milk and bring it to a gentle boil, stirring frequently so it does not stick to the bottom.
  5. Lower the flame and let it simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring often, until the millet turns soft and the mixture thickens.
  6. Add the sugar and jaggery, and a pinch of salt, stirring well until both dissolve completely into the kheer.
  7. Continue simmering for another 5 minutes on low flame until the kheer reaches a smooth, pouring consistency.
  8. Crush the cardamom lightly and stir it in, then switch off the flame.
  9. Serve the kodo ki kheer warm or chilled, garnished with the cardamom aroma.
