Makhana kheer recipe

Makhana kheer recipe | Easy to make Phool makhana payasam with evaporated milk – Lotus seeds payasam recipe with full video and step-by-step pictures.

Wishing you all a very Happy New year 2023. Let the new beginnings bring an abundance of joy, good health, and wealth.

Phool makhana | foxnut, a very healthy and nutrition-rich snack. Generally, it is roasted and served as a snack. I have seen many of them using it in North Indian gravies too, like Makhana masala. I tried makhana kheer many years back but never posted it in the blog.

I wanted to start the new year with a sweet recipe so thought will post this makhana kheer. I used evaporated milk in this recipe, it gives a nice caramelised taste. But if you don’t get it in your place, you can skip it. You can add condensed milk for any variations.
