Steps

  1. Heat the ghee in a large pot over a low heat.
  2. Add the cashew nuts to the ghee, and fry until browned.
  3. Turn off the flame and add the raisins. When the raisins swell up, take both them and the cashews out of the ghee with a spoon and set aside.
  4. Switch the low heat back on and heat the ghee. Add the vermicelli and fry, stirring so it turns golden-brown. Watch it carefully so it does not burn.
  5. Pour in the milk and water. Add the cashews and raisins back into the mixture.
  6. Add the sliced dates and almonds. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until the vermicelli starts to get flexible; then add sugar.
  7. Keep on the low flame for another 2 minutes, then add cream and cardamom powder.
  8. Heat just a little longer and mix well.
  9. Serve hot.
