Millets are great replacements for our staple grains of rice & wheat. They lend a huge variety to our palate, are easier to digest, and fill our mental ‘need’ for grains for a filling meal. Here we have used the vrat ke chawal, barnyard millet also known as Sama chawal. This millet can replace rice in your usual meal, in dosa-idli batters and here in dessert in place of rice!

Ingredients
- Coconut milk: 4 cups
- Sama Rice: ½ cup
- Jaggery powder or syrup: ½ cup (or per taste)
- Nuts for garnishing
Method
- Wash the sama rice thoroughly with water.
- Take sama rice and coconut milk in a steel wok and heat them up till the milk begins to boil.
- Reduce to low flame and simmer the mixture till sama rice is completely cooked. This should take about 10-15 minutes. Remember to keep stirring at regular intervals.
- Switch off the flame at desired consistency and let the kheer mixture cool down completely.
- Once at room temperature, add jaggery powder to it and mix well. (Adding jaggery powder while the mixture is still hot can cause the milk to curdle).
- Alternately, you could add jaggery syrup to the kheer mix while still hot.
- Taste test for sweetness
- Garnish with nuts and serve hot or set in fridge to cool
- Enjoy your healthful kheer guiltfree!
