Goan Dessert Sakhar Bhaat Recipe

Steps

1. 1To begin making Goan Dessert Sakhar Bhaat Recipe, wash rice well with water 3-4 times and leave it aside for 20 minutes soaking in water.
2. 2In a saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of ghee and fry cashew nuts and raisins for a minute. Remove and keep aside.
3. 3In the same saucepan, add the remaining ghee, water, salt and saffron. Mix and let it come to boil.
4. 4Once the water is boiled, add soaked rice. Mix, cover it and cook on medium heat. While covering, make sure not to cover it fully, so as to allow steam to escape.
5. 5Otherwise once the water and rice starts to boil, it starts to overflow. After about 5-6 minutes water will be absorbed.
6. 6Now reduce the heat to low setting and cook till the rice is nice and soft. Stir in between.
7. 7Once the rice is soft, add sugar, fried nuts, raisins and cardamom powder. Mix well. Cover and simmer on low for 5 more minutes and remove from heat.
8. 8Serve Goan Dessert Sakhar Bhaat Recipe as a dessert along with a Goan inspired meal of The Goan Kelyachyo Fodi, Tawa Paratha, Steamed rice and Potato Vindaloo Recipe (Spicy Goan Potato Curry).
