VERMICELLI KHEER/ SEMIYA PAYASAM


VERMICELLI KHEER / SEMIYA PAYASAM.... One of the most popular dish prepared by everyone during festivals and special occasions. I prepare this frequently and differently using different ingredients( recipes will update soon) Today i am sharing with you basic and simple preparation of kheer with few ingredients. Combination of nuts and ghee gives additional flavour to the dish.


Cooking time : 30 mins
Serves 3

INGREDIENTS
1 cup vermicelli / semiya (plain or roasted, i used plain one)
2 cups boiled milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp green cardamom powder / green elachi powder
3-4 tbsp ghee
2 cups water
2 tbsp dryfruits ( i used cashew)

METHOD OF COOKING
  • Take a cooking vessel and add 2 tbsp ghee. Add the cashews and fry them until they turn brown. Remove and keep aside.
  • Add the remaining ghee in the vessel and add the vermicelli and fry on medium heat until it turns golden brown. Nice aroma will come when it fries ( If you are using roasted vermicelli, no need to fry in ghee)
  • Add water and mix well. Let it cook.
  • Once the water gets absorbed add sugar and cardamom powder and mix well.
  • Add milk and mix well. Let it boil on low flame for 5-10 mins.
  • Add the roasted cashews. Mix well and let it cook for 2-3 mins.
  • Serve hot or cold.  
TIPS 
  • U can add dry fruits as per your choice.
  • U can increase or decrease sugar and milk quantity as per your taste.
