Ingredients:
1/2 cup semolina (suji)
1/4 cup unsalted butter (or ghee)
2 cups milk (whole or 2%)
1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder (or a pinch of saffron strands)
Optional: A few drops of rose water
Optional: Chopped nuts (almonds, cashews, pistachios) for garnish
Optional: A pinch of nutmeg for garnish
Optional: A sprinkle of cinnamon for garnish
Instructions:
Roast Semolina: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter (or ghee) over medium heat. Add the semolina and roast, stirring continuously, until it turns light golden brown and releases a nutty aroma, about 5-7 minutes. Be careful not to burn it.
Heat Milk: In a separate saucepan, heat the milk until itβs just about to simmer.
Add Milk to Semolina: Gradually pour the hot milk into the roasted semolina, stirring continuously to prevent lumps.
Add Sugar and Flavorings: Add the sugar and cardamom powder (or saffron) to the semolina mixture. Stir well and cook over low heat until the sugar dissolves.
