Instructions

- Drain water and set aside to cool down completely.
- Fluff it with a fork when it is still warm else it will become very sticky.

- In a wide mixing bowl put cooked semiya, add curd, milk, tadka and fried cashews along with required salt and give a quick mix.

Notes
- If it gets too dry, while serving add little milk / curd to loosen it up.
- I add milk to avoid sourness but thats purely optional. If you are making and serving it at once then add only curd.
- Curd Semiya thickens with time and semiya tends to absorb the curd. So reserve little curd for serving time.
- You can even garnish with grated carrots.
