Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup water (4 oz/120 ml)
  • 3 cups whole milk (24 oz/720 ml)
  • 1/2 cup roasted vermicelli (50 grams)
  • 1/3 cup sugar (75 grams)
  • 3 whole green cardamom pods (crushed)
  • 1 tablespoon golden raisins
  • 2 tablespoons broken cashews
  • 1 tablespoon +1 teaspoon rose water

Method

  1. Before you begin, make sure that the lid and the sealing ring of the Instant Pot are completely clean and dry. They should have no residue on them.
  2. To the inner steel pot of your Instant Pot add all the ingredients in this order- water, milk, roasted vermicelli, sugar, cardamom pods, golden raisins, cashews and 1 tablespoon rose water.
  3. Stir and close the pot with the lid. Press the porridge button and set the time to 8 minutes. The pre-set time for porridge mode is 20 minutes so you have to use the "-" and "+" button to lower down the time to 8 minutes. The pressure valve should be in sealing position. Let the pressure release naturally.
  4. Open the pot and press the saute button. Add additional 1 teaspoon rose water, if using. Simmer on saute for 2 to 3 minutes until the kheer thickens a bit. The kheer will continue to thicken as it cools down, so do not thicken it a lot at this point.
  5. Garnish with more nuts and serve Seviyan Kheer warm or cold!
