Fine wheat vermicelli makes a flowing milk pudding that thickens as it cools.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon ghee
  • 1 cup broken wheat vermicelli
  • 1 litre whole milk
  • 7 tablespoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1 tablespoon almond slivers
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cashews
  • 1 tablespoon golden raisins

Method

  1. Heat ghee in a heavy pan. Stir vermicelli over gentle heat until golden.
  2. Lower heat and carefully add milk. Stir as it comes to a gentle boil.
  3. Dissolve sugar in the milk; add almonds, cashews and cardamom.
  4. Simmer, stirring, until vermicelli is soft and milk lightly thickened. Remove from heat; stir in raisins.

Cooking notes

Refrigerate leftovers promptly. A little milk loosens the chilled pudding.
