'''Khīrå sāgårå''' ({{langx|or|କ୍ଷୀର ସାଗର}}) is an [[Cuisine of Odisha|Odia]] sweet dish that literally translates to ''[[Samudra Manthan|ocean of milk]]'' in Odia language.<ref name="Rath1987">{{cite book|author=Asoka Kumar Rath|title=Studies on some aspects of the history and culture of Orissa|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=BS9uAAAAMAAJ|year=1987|publisher=Punthi Pustak}}</ref> The sweet has depiction in [[Hindu]] scriptures about [[Lakshmi]] serving [[Vishnu]] and Madhusudana with it.<ref name="Rath1987"/><ref>{{cite book|title=The Orissa Historical Research Journal|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=iw5DAAAAYAAJ|year=1990|publisher=Superintendent of Museum}}</ref><br />
<br />
Khīrå sāgårå consists of marble-sized balls of [[chhena]] cheese soaked in sweetened, condensed milk. Saffron and cardamoms are the typical seasonings that are added to this dish. Khirå sagårå is typically served either at room temperature or slightly chilled.<br />
<br />
However, the milk base in khirå sāgårå is thicker, acquiring the consistency of [[rabri]].<br />
