SHEERA….. :)


Sheera is a very simple sweet dish. It can be is prepared quickly in about 10-15 minutes. My mom prepares it every time. There is no need of any special occasion for it to be prepared. Its best to have hot poori along with sweet Sheera during rainy season. Its really a very delicious combination and it tastes yummmmmmmmmmm....This recipe is dedicated to my best friend Pratiba Bhat………She just loves Sheera, its one of her favorite sweet dish. At our college canteen if she used to find that sheera is done ready there was no need to ask her what she will have, it was an obvious answer from her SHEERA.
So here we see how we can prepare sweet sheera
INGREDIENTS: (for 4 members)
2 glass of hot water
¾ cup of Sujji/Bombay Rave
4-5 big tsp of fresh ghee
¾ cup of Sugar (Sugar and rave amount is usually the same ie add in equal quantity)
Pinch of Yellow coloring powder
10-12 Raisins
7-8 Cashews
¼ tsp of Cardamom Powder
PROCEDURE TO PREPARE:
1) Add Sujji/Bombay Rave to a kadai along with 5 big tsp of ghee to it and put kadai over the low flame and now start to roast the rave till it gets light brown color.

2) Now add hot water little by little to the light brown roasted Rave/Sujji and stir it well as and when water is added to it. The hot water is added so as to prevent formation of tiny balls of Sujji / Rave (you call it as ಗಂಟುಗಳು in Kannada).
3) When water starts to evaporate and it begins to become dry, add the cardamom powder along with a little yellow coloring powder to it. Stir them very well.
4) Take a Small Seasoning pan to lightly ghee roast the raisins and cashews till it gets swelled up and then add it to the kadai in which we are preparing sheera.
5) Add the Sugar to the kadai and start stirring it again. When it becomes a little dry take a clean plate apply a little ghee to it and spread the sheera over it and you can cut it into pieces and have it. Or else you can just put the flame off and put it in a bowl and taste it.
Sheera is ready in a less amount of time. Its a very easy and a simple sweet dish to be prepared instantly. When guests come home all of a sudden you can prepare this very soon and serve it to them. It will be done very quickly.
