THIS DELICATELY SPICED RICE PUDDING IS COMFORT FOOD. 

Every single festival started with a delicious bowl of kheer, or rice pudding. There is just something so delicious about the rice breaking down in the milk and spiced ever so delicately with green cardamom pods, which give this dish a hint of spice without overwhelming it. It's the perfect light dessert to end any meal!
