Mango Rice Kheer

This Mango Kheer recipe is a flavor bomb!

Fragrant rice, milk, mango pulp & condensed milk is cooked together in an Instant Pot along with nuts & raisins.

A perfect dump and go recipe that you can make anytime.

Seriously guys, if you are a mango fanatic just like us get on with the recipe & make it instantly.

Even if you hate mangoes give this recipe just one try. You might change your views 😉

I promise it is not complicated, good news is that you can make it with canned mango pulp.

I did just that.

It tastes amazing, not over-powering with mango flavor in each morsel but just an absolute balanced mango touch.

You can truly taste the fragrant rice, the creamy milk that just thickens itself and tastes heavenly once fully cooked along with the sweetener - condensed milk.

Of course you can certainly swap the condensed milk with any sweetener of your choice like honey, maple syrup or even sugar.

And you can do the same with the rice too.

You can use either fragrant Basmati rice or Kalijeera rice. I am an absolute fan of Kalijeera rice and I always cook mango kheer with this rice variety.

But, Basmati rice tastes equally good too.

Don't miss the tips shared below in the post and learn how to make Mango kheer in an Instant Pot just as good as the stove top version - rich, thick & ultra creamy.

Your guests will never know that this Mango kheer is a dump and go recipe that's made handsfree in an Instant Pot 😉

What is Mango Kheer?

Mango Kheer is a rich, creamy & delicious Indian dessert that's made by cooking rice with milk and later flavoring it with Mango pulp and sweetening it with a sweetener.

It's a rich, thick and very creamy rice & mango pudding.

Nuts and raisins are also added for texture, bite & taste. Some people also love using extra flavoring agents like cardamom powder & kewra water.

However, I kept it simple and did not use the above ingredients.

This Mango Kheer can also be made with Vermicelli.

Recipe Ingredients

You don't need tons of ingredients for today's recipe. This is exactly what you will need:

Recipe Ingredients
  1. Rice: Fragrant variety is a must like Basmati, Kaalijeera or Gobindobhog. We love Kaalijeera & Gobindobhog in our Mango Kheer recipe.
  2. Milk: Full fat milk tastes best but you may swap it with fat free or skim milk. Using the later milk varieties will make the Mango kheer less creamy & rich.
  3. Sweetener: Condensed milk is what I used. It adds tons of creamy richness to this Mango rice pudding dessert. You can use regular white sugar, cane sugar, maple syrup or honey as the sweetener.
  4. Mango Pulp: Make your own using fresh ripe mangoes or use the tinned mango pulp available in the Indian grocery stores. I love the canned pulp and I always use the Alphonso mango pulp. It makes life easier, tastes much better & I can make mango desserts throughout the year and whenever cravings strike 😛
  5. Nuts & Raisins: Cashews, and golden raisins tastes best.
  6. Secret Ingredient: Ghee. Don't skip this. It seriously adds tons of flavor and makes this Mango kheer recipe extremely delicious. You can find how to & when to use it in the recipe card below.

Pro Tip: This is what you need to know in case you choose to swap the condensed milk. If using sugar add it in the milk before pressure cooking the recipe. If using maple syrup or honey add it to the pressure cooked pudding.

5 Tips to make the best Mango Kheer

  1. Choose the best quality rice: The best fragrant variety of Basmati, Kalijeera or Gobindobhog will make a lip-smacking bowl of Mango kheer. That's the only thing that matters in this recipe.
  2. Wash the rice well: Was the rice under running tap water very well and a number of times, until you see clear water running through the rice. Washing the rice well will prevent it from being all clumped up in the milk.
  3. Use Ghee: This is one such ingredient that'll insanely transform the full recipe into something that you can't resist eating 😀 Mix the ghee with the rice after you wash and drain it. The ghee will also prevent the rice from forming lumps in the milk.
  4. Add the Mango pulp only after pressure cooking the kheer: Follow this especially if you are using canned Mango pulp. Turn off the heat & mix in the pulp. This will prevent the milk from curdling.
  5. Condensed milk makes creamy dreamy kheer: If you prefer rich, dense, thick & ultra creamy kheer than do not skip using the condensed milk. It adds tons of body & flavor to any kheer recipe.

Serving Ideas

Mango kheer is best enjoyed as a dessert after meals.

I love it hot straight from the pot but Manojeet always loves it chilled.

Both versions taste good, it's a personal preference actually.

Notes

  1. Measuring units used, 1 cup = 240 ml & 1 teaspoon = 5 ml
  2. This recipe of Mango Kheer will give you a rich, creamy kheer that is not runny. If you love a soupy kheer add ½ cup more milk.
  3. DO NOT add the mango pulp before pressure cooking this might split the milk as well as make the mango flavor faint.
  4. You may also cook today's Instant Pot Mango Kheer using skim or low fat milk. In that case the Kheer will be less creamy.
  5. You can also use a different sweetener like sugar, palm sugar, maple syrup or honey.
  6. If using sugar add it directly to the pot before pressure cooking.
  7. If using maple syrup or honey add it to the Mango Kheer after pressure cooking.
  8. Adding palm sugar or cane sugar will slightly change the color of the Mango Kheer and it will become dark.
  9. For BEST flavors do not skip the ghee.
