Method: 1. Pour little water into bottom of haandi, now pour 1 liter full cream milk into it and switch the stove on to medium heat.

Bring the milk to just a boil and reduce heat to medium-low, simmer milk at medium-low heat until volume of milk reduces to almost half. 4. Drain soaked rice from water and add into simmering milk in pot; simmer further for 15 to 20 minutes while stirring and scraping frequently in between simmering. Let milk and rice simmer on medium-low heat until rice is well cooked and almost smashed into milk. Rice and milk mixture becomes thick by this time. 5. Add about 1/2 cup or to taste sugar into simmering kheer, stir to mix and cook further until sugar is well dissolved. 6. Add 3/4th or 1 tsp ground green cardamom powder, slivered and chopped almonds, coarsely broken cashew nuts, chirounji and meengi i.e. Cudappah nuts and peeled melon seeds. Finally pour saffron milk.
