Welcome to My City Food Secret:

Yummy Phirni recipe that is super quick and very easy to make. Also known as Firni by some, this is made with rice and milk as the main ingredients. Do try this Phirni recipe at home and let me know in the comments below on how they turned out. Phirni (firni) recipe: after testing various proportions of rice to milk, milk to sugar, as well as testing with different types of rice, we have finally settled on a phirni recipe that is quick and easy to make, but tastes exactly like the phirni we have eaten in our favourite Mughlai eateries in Pakistan such as Zoobia, etc. This phirni is made with very simple ingredients—rice flour, whole milk, sugar and flavouring agents (we are using saffron or zafran in our phirni). Our version is made without any condensed milk or mawa because we found that they don't make any noticeable difference to phirni. We also like our phirni to be creamy and plain, so we have left out any additional garnishes. Different parts of India and pakistani have their own types of phirni—Punjabi phirni and Kashmiri phirni are especially well known. This particular style of phirni is popular in Mughlai eateries in Pakistani. No biryani meal is complete without a phirni dessert. Enjoy this recipe and if you give this a try, let us know how it turns out!
