Badam Sabudana Kheer

Badam Sabudana Kheer or Almond Sago Pudding is a delicious Indian pudding made with ground almonds and Sago. It’s a sinful combination that is creamy and healthy as well.

Sweets are a must for all festival occasions and it is also made during weekend meals. Amma always makes some payasam for Saturday Poojas and since she makes it every week, she keeps changing the ingredients instead of just Vermicelli Payasam all the time. Also as I had mentioned, she loves Sago, so she keeps using it as many different ways as possible.

Since the April Mega BM preparation has been going on, I had mentioned to Amma that I am planning to feature sweets along with all meals as much as I can. So she has been giving me different ideas for the sweets. So today’s kheer is also part of one such meal!

We are starting our BM#109 week 3 where I will be sharing some Milk based Puddings.
