Method:

• Wash the apple and grate the apples in a grater.
• In a pan add ghee and saute the grated apples for 5 minutes .

• Keep it aside.
• Add milk in a heavy bottomed pan and stir well. 

• Meanwhile soak the saffron and keep it aside.
• Add condensed milk to the boiling milk.

• Let this boil till volume of the milk gets reduced. 
• Add saffron soaked milk to this.
• Scrap the sides of the pan.

• Chop the almonds and pistachios.
• Once the milk starts thickening switch off the pan and add sugar to this.
• I used unrefined sugar.
• Mix well and add the sliced pistachios and almonds.

• Allow this to completely cool.
• Add the grated cooked apples to this and mix well.

• Serve chilled.

Notes:

• The kheer gets slightly thicker after refrigeration.
• I added 1 small apple. You can add 1 more apple too.
• Adding cooked apple in hot rabdi may curdle the milk, so add it once it is cool.
