- Add the roasted vermicelli in the milk and cook for around 15 minutes or until the vermicelli is cooked. It will double in size.
- Add sugar, cardamom powder, almonds, cashews and while stirring it continuously cook or around 5-8 minutes or util the sugar dissolves completely and the kheer turns slightly thick.
- Serve hot or cold.

Recipe Notes
- Don’t overcook the seviyan kheer as it thickens after cooling.
- Thick vermicelli can be replaced with fine vermicelli.
- You can dry roast the vermicelli without ghee. I prefer adding ghee as it gives a nice flavour.
- Always roast vermicelli on medium flame and keep stirring it continuously, else it may burn.
