Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 100g Semolina/ Sooji

  3. Fry the raisins as well till those are fluffy.
  4. Remove from the pan once done.
  5. Add bay leaf and 2 green cardamoms to the remaining ghee in the pan and fry.
  6. Now in the pan add the semolina and fry for around 1 minute in low flame or till it turns light golden in color.
