MY HUBBY ALWAYS LOVES SWEETS..ANY TYPES IF IT SWEET HE EATS ANYTHING......

TRIED THIS YUMMY DESSERT IT CAME OUT VERY WELL.

Take powdered jaggery in a pan, add water to it and mash it well so that the jaggery dissolves quickly.Then heat it up and let it boil for in medium flame for 3-5mins until the syrup becomes slightly thick...no need to check for any consistency.Strain to remove impurities and set aside.

Rinse raw rice and moong dal well strain water.Dry roast it for 3 mins until nice aroma comes.Then in a thick bottomed vessel add 3 cups of milk and add raw rice moong dal to it.

Add a small plate inside the vessel, this is to avoid milk from overflowing.Carefully place the vessel inside a pressure cooker containing little water.Close and pressure cook for 4-5 whistles in low medium flame.Once pressure releases take out the vessel from the pressure cooker open and mash it well with a laddle.

Now add the jaggery syrup and mix well.Then switch on the flame, keep the vessel and add remaining 1 cup milk to it and let it cook for 5mins in low flame.Now add ghee.Add edible camphor and cardamom powder and mix well.Simmer for another 5mins till it comes together.

Take a tsp of warm milk and add saffron to it and crush it well.Fry cashews and raisins in a tsp of ghee.Finally once the rice dal mixture comes to a more pudding like consistency add saffron milk, cashews and raisins and switch off.
