Standard 1 cup measures 240 ml

Ingredients

  • Wheat Rava – ½ cup
  • Water – 2 cups
  • Ghee – 2 tbsp + 1 tbsp
  • Sugar – ½ cup
  • Cardamom powder – ½ tsp
  • Cashew nuts – 6 nos
  • Food Colour as needed optional

Instructions 

  • Heat a pan with ghee, once hot add in the cashew nuts and roast till golden. Remove the roasted cashew nuts from the pan and set them aside.
  • In the same pan add in the Wheat Rava and roast for 1 min in a low flame till it turns aromatic. Next, add in the water and continue cooking in a medium flame.
  • Add in the food color in this stage if adding. Continue cooking till the wheat Rava is fully cooked and the water is almost absorbed.
  • Now add in the 2 tbsp of ghee and cardamom powder and give a good mix. Then add in the sugar and mix well. The sugar would have melted and Kesari would have turned gooey once again.
  • In some time the Kesari would have become thick once again. Mix well and add in the roasted cashews and switch off the flame. Wheat Rava Kesari is now ready to be served.

Notes

I have used fine variety wheat Rava and hence 2 cups of water were sufficient for me. If using a thick variety of wheat Rava uses 3 ½ cups of water.
Adding food color is completely optional, you can skip if you don’t prefer.
Makes a great sweet option along with breakfast or even for an evening.
It gets thick as it cools down.
