Notes
· I used roasted rava and hence I didn't fry the sooji separately. If not fry the sooji in ghee before using in Kesari.
· I dint add any artificial color, I used saffron for the color, you can use any coloring agents if you prefer. But I don’t recommend adding any artificial color.
· The Rava will get cooked soon so make sure you stir well once you add them.
· Always add Rava in small batches to the Kesari,so that no lumps are formed.
· You can use mire ghee if you prefer.
