Semolina & Almond Delight

Here is an easy to make dessert which all of you will love.  I put it in moulds when just warm and served it in individual plates and delighted my guests.  You can have it warm or cold;  I like it warm.

Recipe :  1 cup semolina, 1/2 cup almond meal (almond powder), few sliced almonds and pistas;  quarter cup ghee, 2-1/2 cups milk,  1/2 cup sugar (can add more if you like it sweeter), saffaron strands, 6-8 cardamoms crushed.

Boil milk and saffron and keep aside.  In a non-stick pan, add semolina and almond powder and roast them for sometime (2-3 minutes) ensuring that they do not burn.  Add 1/4 cup ghee and stir.  Add cardamom powder and keep stirring.  Do this for 12-15 minutes.  Add aliced almonds.  Remove from pan and pour milk and stir so that no lumps remain.  Put it back on the burner and add sugar and stir till the milk gets absorbed and the sugar is all dissolved.  Wait till the mixture cools down a bit and when still warm put in moulds.  Remove on a plate and garnish with almonds and pistas.
