Table of Content

Kewra essence is a flavouring substance extracted from the flower of the Pandanus or screw pine tree. An irresistible flavour, it is commonly used in north India and Pakistan, as well as in places like Australia and the Pacific Islands, where the trees are found in large numbers. This Kewra Phirni is nothing but traditional milk and rice phirni flavoured with kewra essence, which gives it an exotic and rich touch.

If you want to try some other type of desert, something different from the chocolates and fruits, then you should try this North Indian delicacy. It is sweet yet not so sweet. Its perfect!
