Ingredients

  • 20 g suji (fine semolina)
  • 8 g Power Sprinkle
  • 25 g powdered sugar
  • 15 g ghee
  • 40 ml whole milk
  • 2 green cardamom pods, crushed
  • 1 pinch saffron (optional)
  • 5 g cashew or raisin garnish (optional)

Method

  1. Warm the milk with the saffron until just hot — do not boil. Set aside.
  2. Heat the ghee in a small heavy pan on low-medium flame. Add the suji and roast, stirring constantly, until pale golden and nutty — about 4–5 minutes.
  3. Lower the flame. Pour in the warm milk slowly, stirring constantly — it will splutter. Stir until absorbed and thickened, about 2 minutes.
  4. Add the sugar and cardamom, stirring briskly. It loosens as the sugar melts, then thickens again over 1–2 minutes.
  5. Turn off the flame completely. Fold in the Power Sprinkle and stir thoroughly.
  6. Garnish and serve warm.
