Ingredients

  • 2 cups full cream milk
  • 1/8 cup semiya
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla essense optional

Instructions

  • Dry roast semiya till golden in low flame.
  • Then add milk and cook semiya until done.
  • When the vermicelli becomes soft, add sugar and simmer for few more mins until it becomes thick and creamy.
  • Cool down and it becomes even more thick. Spoon the mixture into your favorite popsicle mould till 3/4th.
  • Cover with aluminium wrap, prick with knife , insert ice cream sticks and freeze for at least 8 hours.
  • Then carefully show the bottom part in running tap water, set aside undisturbed for at least 2-3mins then slowly remove the popsicles.
  • Enjoy Semiya Paal Ice immediately!

Notes

  • Don't have a popsicle mold?! don't worry use disposable plastic cups or even thick paper cups cling wrap aluminium foil and us ice cream sticks and freeze it. It demolds easily or you can even cut the cups to get the popsicles out.
  • After pouring the mixture, give a stir with a spoon which I forgot to do, so the vermicelli went and settled down more at the bottom.
  • There can be many variations to this semiya paal ice, you can add a teaspoon of vanilla essence to get vanilla flavour or crush few saffron strands and add it. If you like cardamom flavour then add a pinch of cardamom powder. You can even add rose milk essence.
  • Make sure to cool down the milk mixture completely before adding it to the mold.
  • Freezing for at least 6 hours is required.
  • For easy demolding – show the popsicle molds in warm water, then pull the stick out slowly to get the ice pops clean.
  • Do not add sugar before vermicelli gets cooked.
