Ingredients

  • Rava - 1 cup
  • Sugar - 1 cup
  • Milk - 1 cup
  • Water - 1.5 cups
  • Cardamom powder - 1 g
  • Dry fruits if required (almonds, cashews)
  • pinch of saffron
  • Banana - 1 (crushed)
  • Ghee - 2 tbsp

How to Make Sweet Sheera

  • Pour the rava in a deep vessel and roast for 2-3 mins on low flame (do not let the rava burn).
  • Add ghee and roast again for 3-4 mins on medium flame.
  • Sprinkle some water over the rava so that it absorbs moisture and swells in size.
  • Stir the rava and keep aside in a dish.
  • Pour sugar, milk and water in the same vessel used to roast the rava.
  • Add cardamom powder and stir well.
  • Add the dry fruits, saffron and banana. Bring the mixture to boil on low flame.
  • Add the roasted rava and stir quickly to avoid lumps.
  • Cover the vessel with a lid and allow the rava to steam-cook so that it forms a solid mass.
  • Serve hot with onion pakora or potato vada.
