Kaddu Kheer is a delightful Indian dessert made with bottle gourd (kaddu/lauki), milk, sugar, and flavored with aromatic spices like cardamom and saffron. Originating from the rich culinary traditions of South Asia, this dish combines simple, wholesome ingredients to create a creamy, indulgent treat. Bottle gourd is a low-calorie vegetable rich in dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals, making Kaddu Kheer a nutritious option in moderation. Milk serves as a good source of protein and calcium, while the natural spices add more than just flavor—they provide antioxidant and digestive benefits. However, the addition of sugar raises the dish's calorie content, so portion control is key. Traditionally enjoyed during festivals and special occasions, Kaddu Kheer is a versatile dish that can be adjusted for healthier variations, such as using natural sweeteners or low-fat milk, without compromising its signature warmth and sweetness.
