Method

  1. Heat the coconut oil in a heavy-bottomed pan on low flame.
  2. Add the milk and bring it to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.
  3. Lower the heat and let the milk simmer, stirring from time to time so it does not stick to the bottom.
  4. Add the sugar and jaggery, and stir well until both dissolve completely into the milk.
  5. Add a pinch of salt and continue simmering the kheer on low flame until it thickens slightly to a rich, pourable consistency, about 20 to 25 minutes.
  6. Crush the cardamom and stir it into the kheer just before turning off the flame.
  7. Serve the sorghum kheer warm or chilled, garnished with a sprinkle of extra crushed cardamom.
