Trinn for trinn

  1. 1

    Heat the ghee in a medium-sized pot or pan over medium-low heat.

    Omtrent 1 min

  2. 2

    Add the vermicelli to the pot and toast, stirring constantly, until it turns golden brown and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes.

    Omtrent 4 min

    Kokkens tips: Be careful not to burn the vermicelli, as it can toast quickly.

  3. 3

    Pour in the milk and add the sugar and green cardamom pods.

    Omtrent 1 min

  4. 4

    Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the vermicelli is tender and has absorbed most of the milk, about 10-12 minutes.

    Kokkens tips: The consistency should be creamy but not overly thick; it will thicken further as it cools.

  5. 5

    Remove the pot from the heat and discard the cardamom pods.

    Omtrent 1 min

  6. 6

    Stir in the raisins, slivered almonds, and chopped pistachios if using.
