What is Caramel and Custard Kheer?
This dessert is inspired by the English trifle, where multiple desserts are layered into a deep serving bowl, in which one layer is necessarily custard. This kheer is flavoured with a rich custard and layered over with a caramel biscuit crumble and freshly chopped fruits.
How to make Caramel and Custard Kheer?
1) In a stainless steel saucepan, add full cream milk, soaked rice and sugar. Cook the rice till 70% cooked. Add custard powder to the milk and stir constantly, followed by cinnamon powder and heavy cream, incorporate everything and set it aside.
2) Heat a ceramic fry pan and add granulated sugar into it. Stir and heat it till the sugar melts to a golden amber colour. Add cold butter and cream to the sugar and stir vigorously.
3) In a bowl take the biscuits of your choice and crush them to a coarse powder. Add caramel into the crumbled biscuit and mix them together to form a caramel crumble.
4) Layer the custard flavoured kheer in a martini glass, top it off with some biscuit crumble and freshly chopped fruits
Expert Tips
- Make sure to dissolve the custard powder before adding it or it might form lumps.
- While making the caramel, don't cook it too dark of a colour or it might taste bitter.
- Try and choose a biscuit that isn't that sweet to balance out the caramel’s sweetness.
