Gali Sev / Sukhi Sevaiyya / Sweet Vermicelli

A meal is never complete without a dessert and this one is simple and yummy. It merely takes minutes to make. Vermicelli can be made plain like the one below or with milk like this one. 

Ingredients:

2 cups broken (1 inch) vermicelli
1 tablespoon ghee
1 1/2 cups sugar
Water
1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder
Handful of nuts of you choice, chopped (I used cashew nuts)

Heat the ghee in a wok. Add the vermicelli and saute till light brown in color. It takes about 3-4 minutes. Next add cardamom powder and enough water to cover the vermicelli and a little more. Check if all the vermicelli is cooked and add more water if needed. Keep stirring while you do this. When all the water is absorbed add the sugar and stir till dissolved. Add the nuts and stir. Serve hot or warm!

I am sending this to Whats Cooking?'s MMK - Mithai Mela.
