Published by

Orange Vanilla Rice Kheer — dress up your usual rice kheer (pudding) for a festive Rakhi dessert with this delicious twist!

WATCH HOW TO MAKE ORANGE VANILLA RICE KHEER (RICE PUDDING): We’ll start by simmering our milk with the soaked short grain rice or crushed basmati rice. We’ll also add condensed milk, vanilla extract, and some fresh orange zest. Once this thickens, we’ll fold in some pistachios and set this aside. Then, we’ll make the vibrant orange jelly.

Stir in a corn starch slurry until thickened and we’re ready to assemble! Add a layer of that silky vanilla kheer and then spread on our orange jelly. Garnish however you’d like, but I used fresh fruits, pistachios, edible flowers, and edible gold foil for an elegant …

Shaved Fruit Chaat – a fun twist on the viral shaved fruit that’s all over Instagram! This is inspired by Delhi fruit chaat which I absolutely love during the summer, and it’s just as sweet, tangy, and colorful! You can use whichever fruits you have on hand! I used a variety of tropical ones like mangoes, peaches, and pineapple. After grating each fruit, keep it in the fridge so it doesn’t melt while you grate the others. To assemble, drizzle some honey on the bottom of a serving glass. Then, add in your shaved fruits. Sprinkle with chaat masala, roasted cumin powder, and red chili powder. Garnish with lime and it’s really that simple! WATCH HOW TO MAKE SHAVED FRUIT CHAAT: Shaved Fruit Chaat – a fun twist on the viral shaved fruit that’s all over Instagram!
