ABOUT Sabudana Kheer RECIPE

Sabudana or Sago kheer is an integral dish for religious and cultural occasions in many parts of India. As a child I was dearly drawn towards this dish. The luscious sago pearls in the kheer fascinated me as if I was eating genuine pearls. Till date I enjoy the soft sago pearls in the kheer. Sabudana kheer can be savoured as a dessert too. It can be enjoyed hot or chilled. The sago pearls add creaminess and gloss to the kheer.The saffron strands give a nice flavour and rich golden colour. What more could one desire for.. pearls, gold and the dryfruits as gems in the kheer. A really rich dish par excellence!
