Laccha Semai

Ingredients

  • Laccha semai (250 g)
  • Milk (1 liter)
  • Sugar (1 cup)
  • Cardamom (2)
  • Cinnamon (2 sticks)
  • Bay leaf (1)
  • Raisins (for serving)
  • Cashews (for serving)

Method

  1. First, in the dish you will serve the semai in, lightly break apart the laccha semai from the packet and arrange it. In a pot, heat the milk with the sugar, cardamom, cinnamon, and bay leaf. When it comes to a boil, pour the milk over the laccha semai and sprinkle chopped raisins and cashews on top. The amount of milk may seem like a lot, but within a few minutes the semai will absorb it all. Serve once it has cooled slightly.
