Jhangora ki kheer, also known as barnyard millet pudding, is a traditional Indian dessert that combines the nutty flavor of jhangora (barnyard millet) with the richness of milk and the sweetness of sugar.

It has a low glycemic index, making it suitable for individuals with diabetes or those seeking to maintain healthy blood sugar levels.

1 1/4 cups sugar
1/4 cup blanched slivered almond
