Today's recipe is Carrot Kheer. I recently made this kheer for a potluck dinner and it was a hit. Everyone just loved it. But I could not take any pictures so couldn't blog about it. Again I made it this weekend when I went to visit my friend. I didn't want to miss it this time too, so in a hurry clicked some pictures and finally here I am with the recipe. Most of the carrot kheer I have come across is made with just pureed carrot, but I wanted add some texture, so added vermicelli along with the pureed carrot. It is a rich, creamy delicious payasam/kheer with the goodness of carrot.
