Samak rice/barnyard millet kheer

Samak rice kheer is usually made when one is fasting especially during Navaratris as it is a falahar food. Nevertheless, it can be made anytime, fasting or no fasting. Craving something sweet but watching your weight too!? then this recipe is for you, because it's sweet and healthy. Samak rice is not rice, but barnyard millet, a gluten-free, fiber-rich, high on essential minerals like iron and magnesium, and nutritious seed which makes it a great source of energy. They are similar to broken brown rice when cooked and can give your fill for rice cravings. All of this and more makes Samak rice kheer way much healthier than white rice kheer. Let's get to the recipe of it then. Note: 1) You can substitute sugar with honey but do not add it when the the kheer is hot instead add it when it's on room temperature or cooled down completely. 2) You can use Almond, oat or any other non-dairy, vegan milk as well instead of whole milk. 3) Can add saffron/kesar as well for color if not making it during falahar fasting. Hope you'll try this yummilicious recipe and if you do, let me know in the comment section how it turned out to be.
