Rang Barse Bheege chunarwali Rang Barse..... Holi Hain... The Festival of colors.. I just like humming this song a lot on the day of Holi. I guess its the best song ever for this festival. I think most of my readers wud agree with this.
And this festival without any sweets is incomplete. So I am posting a very simple recipe of Kheer.

  • Take a Handi or a tambe ka lagan boil milk in it.
  • After one boil lower the flame.
