by Tarla Dalal
Here is a dessert that combines the fruity punch of strawberries with the rich desi flavour of kheer. Strawberries in chopped and pureed forms give this intensely milky kheer a double boost, while the mild use of spices gives it a very aesthetic flavour.

I am big fan of Tarla Dalalji, I always try her recipes, and they all come out well. But with this recipe, my milk got curdled after adding the puree and chopped strawberries. I think you need to change or add the step to allow the milk to come back to room temperature and then add puree and chopped strawberries. Also the video shows to add the puree and chopped strawberries immediately after switching off the flame. Pls check.Also would appreciate if you can add the tips ,like if something goes wrong or some mistake takes place ...how can one adjust to rectify that dish . Like in my case , if the milk gets curdled...what to do or how can one rectify. Thanks

When we think of kheer one always thinks about rice Kheer but this Strawberry Kheer is not only unusual but great in taste to, what I love the best about this recipe is the chopped pieces of strawberries that give a very nice mouthfeel. I serve this chilled which is very important.
A very healthy dessert without the use of any high carbohydrate or high cal ingredients. Worth a try!!
