It is simple, delicious and satisfies us with every bite. In fact, no traditional feast seems complete without some kheer at the end of a meal. Kheer sees different variations across India. While it is called payesh in Bengal, in Kerala it is known as payasam. Another such popular variation to kheer is phirni. A creamy concoction of milk, rice and sugar, phirni has a thicker consistency, when compared to kheer. And what makes it standout in the lot is the rose-flavour of the dish.
