Warning – This post has lot of photos! I couldn’t decide, which one not to post! So I have made the saffron and paneer drenched kheer, rich with visual teasers! Enjoy!!

I love chilled kheer, resting in a kulhad and sakore, the earthern small pots, made to serve the street treats mainly. The mit to ki Khushboo and swaad (earthern aroma and flavors), make any dessert so desirable and exotic.

Be honest, don’t you want to pick up one pot from there and devour it? That’s why, I am taking these gorgeous mini earthern pots filled with heavenly nectar deliciousness to Angie’s Fiesta Friday!

This dish was an accidental product of my experiment. I called up Shailja in the morning and after our usual notes exchange, I demanded her to inspire me to create something today. I said, “Shailja, festivals are coming up and I really need some good ideas to blog. We both discussed our plans. Finally, I agreed to make small rasgullas in  malai. Checked my notes with her. She is my Guru when I am stuck. Somehow the Shortcut that I thought would work, backfired at me. I didn’t give up. Tried again and make the Paneer ki kheer! This was anyways on my mind to make since a long time.

I promise I haven’t looked for the recipe from anywhere. Long time ago, had tried this at one of my Bengali Neighbor’s house and had fallen in love with this kheer since then. It’s been 14 years and here I am, finally tried it! A much satisfying moment for me!

Without further ado, here is the super simple recipe which will make your festival time more enchanting and appetizing with its looks and licks :).

Let the festivities begin on a good note. Enjoy this Kesariya Paneer Ki Kheer from my Indian American Kitchen in yours 😉!!

Go! Go! Crank that gas stove of yours and whip this deliciousness and collect all the accolade :).

  5. Gorgeous photos! And I have never made my own paneer cheese, I might give it a go as I am sure it will taste better than the pre packed one that is avaliable here. 🙂

        1. Wow!! I will take that with humility. I try hard Patty by observing others and leaning from them every day.

  7. I’m being honest here, I don’t want to pick up one pot of this. No, thanks! I want TWO!! Haha…fooled you for one second, didn’t I? And I want mine with lots and lots of silver! I just know silver is delicious even though I’ve never had any, since it’s so pretty 🙂
