Ingredients

  • 1 cup vermicelli/semiya
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon saffron soaked in 1/8 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder
  • 3 tablespoons ghee
  • 3 teaspoons broken nuts+raisins

Instructions

  • Heat 2 teaspoons ghee in a pan.Fry the nuts until golden,remove the nuta slone,let the ghee be in the pan itself.
  • Roast semiya in the ghee until fragrant. Take care not to burn.
  • Add saffron soaked milk+water to the roasted semiya and let it cook till all the water is absorbed and semiya is soft and completely cooked.
  • Once all the water is absorbed,add sugar and mix well.Once the sugar starts to melt,add ghee and mix well.
  • Once the ghee starts to separate,add cardamon powder,fried nuts,
  • Mix well and serve hot.

Notes

1.I used short roasted semiya,it requires very less water and cooks very fast.If you more water,it may turn pasty.
2.If using non roasted semiya,roast it till becomes nicely fragrant and add more water to cook.
3.As mentioned you can increase sugar by 1/4 cup
