Besan Ka Seera

If there is one food which is the food that I associate to mum’s warm cooking in Delhi Chilly winters, a dish that would have had sitting in a cosy rajai in the night and than slowly drifting to sleep after reading a book its besan ka seera. And according to my mum its very healing for cold (and indeed it is, mum’s are always right aren’t they?) and I remember how as kids we would get happy for a cold because that would mean getting besan ka seera… sigh and now when I am writing this post I am craving for it yet again. I think post finishing this post I will go and make some for myself

What I used

• Besan – 1 cup
• Sugar – 3/4 cup
• Ghee – 1/2 cup
• Cardamom powder – 1/2 tsp
• Milk – 1.5 cup (I like my seera a little liquidy make it one cup if u dont)

How I made it

• Heat ghee in a pan and add the besan to it. Roast till it changes color and leaves a nice aroma
• Add cardamom powder to it and add cold milk constantly stirring it so that no lumps are formed
• Add sugar and boil for 4-5 minutes and eat it really hot

I love it hope you do too
