Barnyard Rice Kheer, also known as Barnyard Millet Pudding, is a wholesome and delicious twist on the traditional Indian dessert. Made with barnyard millet, also called "samak rice" or "sanwa," this kheer is naturally gluten-free and packed with fiber, iron, and essential nutrients. Slow-cooked in milk, the millet absorbs the rich flavors of cardamom, saffron, and jaggery or sugar, creating a creamy and aromatic dessert. Garnished with chopped nuts like almonds, cashews, and pistachios, along with a hint of rose or saffron, this kheer is a perfect offering for festive occasions, fasting days, or a nutritious treat for all ages.
