KitchenMasti Points.

1. It is always better to cook sabudana separately along with water. Boiling it with milk may be one of the reasons for the milk to curdle.
2. You may use any variety of sabudana, nylon sabbaki is probably the best.
3. Adding milk powder is optional but using it will definitely enhance the taste.
4. You may increase the quantity of sugar if you have a sweet tooth.
5. You can garnish the kheer with chopped almonds to enrich the taste.
