Vermicelli Kheer

       
              Vermicelli Kheer is a traditional dessert. It is made quickly. Tastes also awesome.

Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup Vermicelli
• 1/2 cup Sugar (you can add more or less accoding to your taste)
• 2 cups hot Milk
• Cardamom Powder
• Saffron
• 1 tsp Ghee
• Chopped almonds

Method:

• Heat ghee in a heavy bottomed pan.
• In a separate bowl boil milk. Once boiled, switch off the heat.
• Add vermicelli to the ghee. If it is roasted, saute it in ghee for just a minute. If it is not roasted, saute it in ghee for atleast 4 - 5 minutes till it is browned.
• Add sugar to it. Once all the sugar is melted, add the hot boiled milk to it. Also add cardamom powder to it.
• Boil the vermicelli milk mixture for around 10 minutes. You will notice that the milk has reduced a bit & vermicelli has fluffed a bit.
• Now switch off the heat.
• Remove it in a bowl. Garnish it with few strands of saffron & chopped almonds.
• Let it cool & refrigerate it.
• Serve chilled !!

Tips:

• I generally don't like many dry fruits except for almonds in my sevaiya kheer. But if you like, you can add almonds, cashews & raisins after you saute the vermicelli & sugar.
• You will notice the kheer has thickened after cooling. You can add some milk to it, to get the desired consistency of the kheer.
