instructions
    1

    Begin by soaking the rice in water for about 30 minutes to soften. Drain the water afterwards.

    2

    In a pot, melt 2 tablespoons of ghee over medium heat. Add the beef and sauté it, cooking for about 10 minutes until it is browned.

    3

    Add the soaked rice to the pot with the beef, and stir it to combine for a couple of minutes.

    4

    Pour in 4 cups of milk and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Lower the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

    5

    After 20 minutes, add 0.5 cups of sugar, 0.5 teaspoons of cardamom, and the saffron to the mixture. Continue to simmer for an additional 10 minutes.

    6

    Add 1 tablespoon of rose water and mix well. Taste and add more sugar if desired.

    7

    Once everything is well incorporated, remove from heat and let it cool down for a few minutes.

    8

    Serve the kheer in bowls, garnished with sliced almonds.
