Ingredients

  • 1 cup semiya / vermicelli thin variety
  • 3 and 1/2 cups full cream milk boiled, cooled
  • 1 tablespoon ghee
  • 1/2 teaspoon cardamom powder
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoon mixed nuts

Instructions

  • I used this vermicelli which was meant for payasam. Measure vermicelli and set aside.
  • Heat ghee in a pan, roast vermicelli in low flame till slightly golden.
  • Now add 3 cups milk to it. Let it cook until semiya turns soft.
  • Add sugar only after semiya is cooked but not mushy.
  • After adding sugar, the mixture turns runny. Cook until slightly thick and creamy.
  • Add cardamom powder,1 tablespoon chopped nuts of your choice. Mix well.
  • You can add saffron if you like the flavour.
  • Reserve another 1 tablespoon mixed nuts while garnishing.
  • Add remaining milk mix well and switch off. This kheer thickens with time so switch off when its still a bit runny.
  • Serve Seviyan Kheer warm or chilled!

Notes

  • I used full cream milk.
  • Make sure you add sugar only after semiya is cooked.
  • This kheer thickens after cooling so reserve and add little milk at the last stage while switching off.
  • If you are using low fat milk then reduce (simmer) and then add.
  • I couldn't find the fine thin strands of vermicelli so used this variety.
    If you get the fine variety then use it.
  • You can replace cardamom powder with saffron too or add both.
