4. Add Jaggery

Once the rice is cooked and the mixture thickens, add the grated or chopped jaggery (gur) to the kheer. Stir well until the jaggery dissolves completely.

5. Simmer Further

Let the kheer simmer for another 10-15 minutes on low heat, allowing the flavours to meld together. Keep stirring occasionally.
