Mango Pudding

Dear Friends

Here I had remembered Mango pudding that my mother used to make it and serve chill.It was so mangolicious :) It is purely originated from India.It has ground rice (either Basmati rice or jasmine rice) mixed along with milk and India's tropical favorite fruit is mango.:) It goes great for any occasions. Why I made this dessert is because I am wishing my parents very happy anniversary and it is special dessert for my parents who cooked it for me when as a child :). Here is the recipe follows. I followed the method by my mom and also watched you tube video on Sanjeev Kapoor. It looks like an exact Mango Phirni.

It is easy to see the video on how to make an exact like mine.
