An easy, yummy and guilt free dessert which can brighten up a dull day!
- 3/4 cup roasted Vermicelli
- 1/4 cup sago/sabudana
- 3 cups milk (2%)
- ½ cup fat free condensed milk
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tsp ghee
- 1/2 tsp Cardamom powder
- 5-10 cashew pieces
- 10-15 raisins
Preparation:
v Soak the Sago/sabudana in enough water for about 3 hours.
Method:
v Heat the ghee in a heavy bottomed pan over medium heat and fry cashews till golden brown, next add raisins and fry until they plump up. Keep them aside.
v Fry the roasted vermicelli for a little while, making sure that it does not burn up. Keep aside.
v Pour the milk in the same pan bring to boil.
v Reduce the flame and then add roasted vermicelli, soaked sabudana, sugar, condensed milk and let this simmer for about 20 minutes ( or until it thickens up a little). Stir this whole thing in between, so that it does not settle at the bottom.
(Adding too much condensed milk will make it overtly sweet)
v Remove from flame and then add cardamom, cashews and raisins. Cool to room temperature. Note that after it is cooled the entire thing will thicken a lot.
v This can also be served cold by keeping it in the refrigerator.
I love this kheer cold!
