200 g fine vermicelli, broken into 1 inch pieces
250 g sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons ghee or 6 tablespoons clarified butter
1 tablespoon raisins
400 ml water
700 ml milk
2 cloves
3 cardamom pods, cracked
1 cinnamon stick
Directions:
1. Put 2 Tablespoons ghee/clarified butter/oil in a pan and heat on low-medium.
2. Fry raisins until they swell .
3. Set aside.
4. Heat water and spices in a large saucepan (lg enough to fit all ingredients) over medium heat.
5. On another burner, add 4 Tablespoons of ghee/clarified butter/oil to a large frying pan, and add vermicelli.
6. Fry over medium heat, stirring with a spatula very often, until golden brown.
7. Reduce the heat after it has browned, and slowly add sugar, salt, and boiling water; stir well.

9. Then add milk, and raisins, and boil for a few more minutes.
