  • 1 tablespoon Raisins
  • 1 tablespoon Almonds, slivered
  • 1/2 teaspoon Rose water(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the basmati rice thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear, then drain.

    Turn on the Instant Pot to 'Sauté' mode and melt the ghee. Lightly toast the cashews and raisins until golden, then remove and set aside.

    Add the rinsed rice to the pot and sauté for 1 minute to coat with the remaining ghee.

    Once the timer goes off, allow a natural pressure release (NPR) for at least 10 minutes before venting the remaining steam.

  7. 7

    Open the lid, stir in the sugar, and select 'Sauté' mode for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly until the kheer thickens to your liking.

    Stir in the toasted nuts, raisins, and rose water, then serve warm or chilled.
