Steps

1To begin making Quinoa Phirnee Recipe, place a saucepan on medium heat. Add ghee to it. Once the ghee becomes warm, add quinoa to it. Roast the quinoa till it becomes light brown. At this stage, add 1 cup hot water and bring it to boil. Once the water is reduced to half, add 2 cup hot milk to it. Add the saffron strands to it.
2Let the quinoa and milk mixture come to boil. Reduce the flame to low and let it simmer for 7-8 minutes. By this time, the quinoa will be perfectly cooked.
3When the quinoa is cooked through, add sugar and cardamom powder. Stir well and cook until all the sugar dissolves. You can adjust the consistency of the Quinoa Phirnee by adding more hot water if required.
4Add the condensed milk. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat.
5Serve the Quinoa Phirnee Recipe in individual bowls garnished with chopped assorted nuts.
