Santra Ni Kheer

• 1 qtfull-fat milk
• ½ cuppowdered sugar
• ¾ lboranges (about 2–3 oranges), segmented, juice reserved

Method

1. 1

   Reduce the milk. Bring the milk to a boil in a heavy pot. Reduce heat to a low simmer and cook, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin forming, for 18–20 minutes until reduced to approximately half its volume (about 500 ml). The milk should be slightly thickened. Remove from heat and cool completely, then refrigerate until very cold.

2. 2

   Prepare the oranges (2–3 oranges). Peel and segment the oranges, working over a bowl to catch all the juice. Collect any juice that runs out.

3. 3

   Sweeten. Dissolve the powdered sugar (100 g) completely in the collected orange juice, stirring until no grains remain.

4. 4

   Combine. Add the sweetened orange juice and the orange segments to the very cold reduced milk. Stir gently.

5. 5

   Serve immediately in chilled bowls.
