Rava Sheera / Semolina “pudding”
This is one of a family of flour / grain based Indian sweets called Sheera that is made the exact same way — roast the grain / flour in ghee till it blooms / lightly toasts (but doesn’t brown — low heat, patience required), then add milk or water and sugar or jaggery, plus scant sweet spices and nuts — usually only cardamom and saffron in the spice group and most often slivered / shaved almonds for nuts but sometimes a mix including pistachios and cashews, and cook on very low heat until all the liquid is absorbed, the grain / flour fluffs up, and the ghee starts to be visible again.
Today’s version: fine rava (actually italian semolina lol), milk, sugar, cardamom, saffron, almonds, and pistachios.
