Firni

Filed under: Naphade Recipes — Kshitija Nadgouda @ 5:55 am

Ingredients:
2 litres milk
a few drops of ghee
3 dry figs
6 walnuts
3 dried apricots
rose essence

Method:
1. Soak the rice in water for 1 hour. Soak apricots and figs in water for 1/2 hour so that they are easy to cut into small pieces. Also dice the walnuts.
2. Drain the water from the rice and let it dry by spreading it out on a paper or napkin.
3. Grind the rice very coarsely. This is called “tandulachi kani”
4. Take very little ghee (a few drops) and roast the rice until pink.
5. Boil the milk.
6. Once it starts boiling, sprinkle the roasted kani. Ensure no lumps are formed.
7. Let the milk boil while the kani gets cooked well. It will thicken as the kani gets cooked & after cooling.
8. Add the dry fruits and a few drops of rose essence.
9. Cool and serve chilled.
