Semiya Kesari Recipe

Semiya Kesari is a very easy kesari recipe made with vermicelli and the best part is, it is quick to make and needs very little ghee unlike other kesari recipes.This semiya kesari is very easy to make, perfect to serve for guests too.After trying semiya upma, I confidently tried this semiya kesari and enjoyed it.I love all kesari recipes and the list justifies it 🙂

Kesari Recipes:

  • Rava Kesari
  • Milk Kesari
  • Aval Kesari
  • Pineapple Kesari

Semiya Kesari Recipe

My Notes:

  • I used fine vermicelli so needed only 1 and 1/2 cups of water.Water quantity may vary depending on the variety of vermicelli.
  • Do not add sugar before the vemicelli gets cooked else the kesari will turn rubbery.
  • Roasting vermicelli gives a nice aroma and also makes it non sticky and will avoid mushiness while getting cooked.
  • Remember I measured the vermicelli only loosely packed so measure and adjust the ingredients according to your vermicelli measures.
  • You can also add your favorite essence too but I love the plain cardamom flavour the best.
  • If you like elachi flavour more, just skip saffron and add a generous pinch of cardamom powder.
  • Semiya kesari doesn’t require much ghee like the other kesari recipes.
  • This keeps well for 2 days if refrigerated after a day.And while serving just heat it up and drizzle little ghee and serve.
