Phirni is a popular sweet from North India. It is tasty and ideal for any festive occasions. Badam Phirni is rich, tasty and easy to prepare.

Years back, I learnt to make this recipe and it’s been loved by all at home. Thus, I have never tried making the authentic way. May be, the next time I will try for once and see the difference in the two methods. The traditional method involves soaking of rice and grinding to a paste. Here, I use the ready flour that is available at home. One needs to keep on stirring  as lumps will be formed easily.

Badam Phirni is a quick dessert recipe ideal to serve for any celebrations or festivities. It is a good way to feed fussy children. Please do note this is not the authentic recipe of making phirni. The authentic recipe requires to soak rice and use the paste.

badam phirni

Ingredients:

  • 1 litre milk
  • 15 almonds
  • 2 tablespoon rice flour
  • 6-8 strands saffron
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder

Method:

  1. Put milk in a thick bottom pan and put it to boil on a low flame.
  2. In two tablespoon of warm milk, soak the saffron strands.
  3. Grind the almonds to a fine powder. Put it in the milk.
  4. Add sugar to it. Give a stir.
  5. Now, slowly add the rice flour to it. Keep stirring as lumps are easily formed.
  6. Once it thickens, add cardamom powder and the soaked saffron to it. Give a stir and put it aside.
  7. Serve it chilled.

Take a tip:

  1. Alternatively, soak two tablespoon of rice in water for half an hour. Grind it to a paste and put it in the milk.
  2. Almonds may be soaked in water but I prefer to use it this way.
  3. A mixture of cashew and almonds may be powdered and used.
  4. Instead of cardamom powder and saffron strands, vanilla flavour may be used.
