GAVICHI KHEER(WHEAT KHEER)

Gavichi kheer

This kheer is the authentic recipe from maharastra.All over India people make this kind of sweet dish in many names kheer,payasam,pradaman etc....Wheat is a good fibre and very good for health.The original recipe contains wheat germs soak them in water whole night,grind them and use....It's a long process I've done a cheating work by using bulgar(broken wheat).

It is as healthy as whole wheat germ and easy to cook.To make the kheer thick use rawrice soaked in water and grind to a fine paste.you can use rice flour simply.And  when we comes to jaggery you all know ,It contains Iron,calcium etc.........But beware It may contain mud so make a syrup,strain and use...On the whole this Kheer isa healthy and nutritious one............Lets see the recipe now.......

mmmm.........one more thing I made this recipe for south vs north challenge on fb by Divya pramil suggested by Manjula kanted .Hosted by Manjula, Unfortunately this is the last month of this challenge............
