Annam-Kobbari Parvanam (Rice and Coconut Kheer) Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Indian Recipes. (Annam-Kobbari Parvanam (Rice and Coconut Kheer) Recipe). Annam parvanam is probably the most common Naivedyam item in South India. I like to add some more flavor and richness to this traditional parvanam by adding some fresh coconut to it. You can use sugar instead of jaggery, but I like using a bit of both. Feel free to experiment with this dessert. I like to serve this cold.
