2 Tbsp Ghee or Butter
6 Cardamom or 1\2 tsp cardamon powder
1\8  tsp Saffron, soaked in a 2 tbsp warm water (Zaffran)
1\2 Cup Sugar
2 Cup Water
1 tsp Kewra
1\4 tsp Yellow, powdered food colouring

1) Before starting, break the sawaiyan into small pieces.
2) Fry the sawaiyan, ghee and cardamons on low heat for 5 minutes. 
3) Add the sugar, saffron with the saffron water.
4) Add the water.
5) Mix the sawaiyan continuously so they don't stick to each other.
6) Lower the heat once the water has been absorbed.
7) Add kewra and cover with the lid for 2 minutes.
8) Garnish with almonds.
9) Serve hot and enjoy.

We love to enjoy this warm desert on Eid just because it's so special and breath taking.
