Sheera is a rich sweet made with chiroti rava, a lot of ghee, sugar and nuts. A perfectly cooked sheera is well balanced with moisture and just melts in the mouth.
Ingredients:
-
1/2 cup Chiroti Rava
-
1/3 cup ghee
-
1/2 cup sugar
-
1 1/2 cup water
-
4 cloves
-
Cashew nuts
-
Raisins
-
Less than a pinch salt
Directions:
Take 1 tsp ghee in a pan and fry the cashew nuts and raisins. Keep aside
To the same pan add another tsp ghee and fry Chiroti rawa. Fry till you get a good aroma. Add 4 cloves while frying. Keep aside
In a vessel take 1 1/2 cups of water and boil it. Here we need to take 3 times water that of the quantity of rava. I have used 1/2 cup Rava, hence I have used 1 1/2 cup water.
When the water boils add the Rava and stir continuously without stopping till entire mix comes together. Cook it in low flame.
Now add 1/2 cup sugar and mix it thoroughly till the sugar melts.
Add all the remaining ghee, cashew nuts, raisins and cardamom powder. Mix it well.
Close the lid and cook for 5 minutes on slow flame. Off the flame. Open the lid after 15 minutes.
Notes
- I have not used food colour, you can use it while water is boiling. You can also add Kesar
- Be careful while adding salt it Should be less than a pinch or even avoid. More salt will ruin the entire taste of the Kesari bath.
