This is a wonderful recipe from my MIL :-) It is absolutely delicious! Cook and prep times are approximate Ingredients:
200 g fine vermicelli, broken into 1 inch pieces |
250 g sugar |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
6 tablespoons ghee or 6 tablespoons clarified butter |
1 tablespoon raisins |
400 ml water |
700 ml milk |
2 cloves |
3 cardamom pods, cracked |
1 cinnamon stick |
Directions:
1. Put 2 Tablespoons ghee/clarified butter/oil in a pan and heat on low-medium. 2. Fry raisins until they swell . 3. Set aside. 4. Heat water and spices in a large saucepan (lg enough to fit all ingredients) over medium heat. 5. On another burner, add 4 Tablespoons of ghee/clarified butter/oil to a large frying pan, and add vermicelli. 6. Fry over medium heat, stirring with a spatula very often, until golden brown. 7. Reduce the heat after it has browned, and slowly add sugar, salt, and boiling water; stir well. 8. Leave to cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. 9. Then add milk, and raisins, and boil for a few more minutes. 10. Eat warm. 11. If you wish to eat this cold, place in a container (which has a tight fitting lid) and allow it to sit out until slightly cooled with lid only 1/2 way on. 12. When slightly cooled, pick up lid, wipe away moisture, and then tightly close the container and refrigerate for several hours until chilled. 13. ENJOY! |
