Turn on the instant pot and press the sauté mode.
Add the ghee, and let it melt.
Add the nuts and fry for two to three minutes. Now add the raisins and fry for two minutes.
Now add the water to the pot. The water will instantly bubble because of the heat in the instant pot. Water will help in avoiding a burnt bottom.
Add the rest of the ingredients- milk, rice, sugar and saffron. Mix well and close the lid and turn the valve to the sealing position.
Cancel the sauté mode and press porridge button and adjust the timing to 20 minutes on high pressure
Once the twenty minutes are up, wait until the pressure releases naturally.
Mix well and taste the Kheer and add little more sugar if its not sweet enough.
Press the sauté mode, add cardamom powder and cook for two to three minutes till you get the desired consistency of the kheer.
To check if the Kheer is in right consistency - take a spoonful of Kheer and pour it down..... the milk and rice should fall slowly together. If not you may want to cook for few more minutes.
