Mango Phirni


Mango Phirni is an aphrodisiac. The silken texture, the flavor of Alphonso mango and carb from rice takes you to a state of bliss almost instantly. Can you believe this phirni can be made in flat 10 mins. Yes absolutely. This one can be a made for a party one day before and served chilled. It tastes even better. You would have steamed rice ready for a meal. Well and the family gets a kick by asking for last minute additions to the meal. The phirni can come to your help. Do as I did.

Ingredients

1 cup cooked basmati rice
1 cups whole milk
1/2 cup condensed milk
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup Alphonso mango puree
1/2 teaspoon ghee

Grind cooked rice and milk together to get a thick liquid. In a thick bottom vessel boil the rice and milk mixture with sugar for 5 mins. While it is boiling add the condensed milk. Let it thicken for 5 mins. It should be creamy in consistency. Put off the heat and add the ghee. Let is cool for a while then add Alphonso mango puree. It is important for the phirni to cool before adding mango else it will coagulate the milk. Top up with any nuts I used charoli.

Slurp up the Mango Phirni. Make this on the weekend you will need a nap after it.

    One doubt though, you have included ghee in ingredients.. I didnt realize at what point you have used it in the recipe.. Please clarify..

  11. Soni I have mentioned that ghee is do be added after cooking the rice with milk. Here ghee is used only to impart flavor so it is more like drizzling it hence the small quantity. Most recipes will start with adding ghee first and then rice but to avoid more usage of ghee which is uneccessary for this recipe, I added is as a flavorant at the end.
