Ingredients of Assorted Rice Kheer Sushi
- 1 cup basmati rice
- 4 cups milk
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp cardamom powder
- 1/4 cup chopped mixed nuts (such as almonds, cashews, and pistachios)
- 1/4 cup chopped mixed dried fruits (such as raisins, apricots, and dates)
- A pinch of saffron
- 4-6 sheets of nori seaweed
- Sushi rolling mat
How to Make Assorted Rice Kheer Sushi
- Rinse the basmati rice thoroughly in cold water and drain.
- In a large pot, bring the milk to a boil and add the rinsed rice. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the rice is fully cooked and the milk has thickened into a pudding-like consistency (this should take about 30-40 minutes).
- Add the sugar, cardamom powder, chopped nuts, dried fruits, and saffron to the rice pudding and stir until everything is well combined.
- Allow the rice pudding to cool to room temperature.
- To make the sushi rolls, place a sheet of nori seaweed onto a sushi rolling mat with the shiny side facing down.
- Using a spatula or your hands, spread a thin layer of the rice pudding onto the nori seaweed, leaving a 1-inch border at the top and bottom.
- Roll the sushi tightly, using the sushi rolling mat to help you keep the roll compact.
- Repeat this process with the remaining sheets of nori and rice pudding.
- Slice the sushi rolls into bite-sized pieces and serve.
