Seviyan Kheer

Seviyan kheer is regular at my place. In fact, I have grown up eating this kheer.

To make this all you need is some vermicelli and the rest of the ingredients are easily available in any kitchen. I have used a thick variety of vermicelli. You can use whatever is available with you. I always prefer whole milk to make this dish. As whole milk adds a rich, creamy taste to it. However, a lighter version can also be made by skipping ghee and replacing whole milk with low-fat milk. In addition, nut-based or plant-based milk can be used for a dairy-free version.

Serve this on any festival, special occasion, or just an after meal dessert and enjoy the delight.
