How to Make Seviyan Vermecilli Dessert

  1. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 6 ounces (170ml) water, and 2 tablespoons honey. Stir over low heat until sugar dissolves completely.
  2. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  3. Heat 1/4 cup ghee (clarified butter) in a separate pan over medium heat. Add 1 cup vermicelli and fry gently, stirring frequently, until golden brown. Be careful not to burn it.
  4. Pour the cooled sugar syrup over the fried vermicelli. Add 5-6 crushed green cardamoms.
  5. Stir in 1/4 cup fried raisins.
  6. Reduce heat to very low. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the moisture is absorbed and the vermicelli is cooked through but still separate. (About 10-15 minutes)
  7. The finished seviyan should be slightly separated, not mushy or sticky.
  8. Serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with slivered almonds (about 1/4 cup).
