Ingredients (for drink)
Semolina/Farina/Sooji/ Rava- 2 1/2 tbsp
Milk- 1 1/2 cup
Water- 1 cup
Sugar-4 tbsp (according to sweetness)
Cardamom- ½ tsp powdered (optional)
Ingredients (for seasoning)
Ghee/Clarified Butter- 1 tbsp
Shallots- 2 (finely chopped)
Cashew nuts- 3-4 (chopped...not so small)
Raisins- 5-6
Drink Preparation
~Combine the milk with water, sugar, rava in a saucepan(chaya pathram) & bring it to a boil (keep stirring in between).
~Simmer on low heat for 6 mins, until everything merges well and the semolina cooks.(Be careful not to let it boil over)
~Add the cardamom powder and add more sugar if needed.
~ Take the mixture off the flame and let it absorb the flavors. The mixture should be the consistency of a watery shake/smoothie.
Seasoning Preparation
~ Heat ghee in a pan, and sauté the cashew nuts, raisins and shallots on low heat till they turn golden and remove from fire and pour over the milk mixture..(Do not let them burn..keep stirring..)
The drink will thicken after some time, so do not add too much semolina considering the drink to be too thin. If later it does turn too thick, just simmer it with more milk.
Njoy a fantabulous hot drink with your family this Ramadan..!!!
