Phirni ,A popular summer cooler dessert .Especially liked in the north of India.It not only goes well with your vegetarian menu ,but also compliments the tastes of non-vegetarian delights. Make this and I guarantee a very delighted guest. We make this often for our lunch party as with a elaborate snacks and main course to cook, phirni definitely given you a easily cooked and relished dessert.
Phirni traditionally prepared with just the cardamom flavor, a hint of rose just elevates the taste to another level.I learnt to prepare this yummy dessert from my mother in law.Since then , i must have cooked this numerous times and every time the taste just went better and better.One just cannot get bored with this light and delectable dish.
