Seviyan Kheer is a Vermicelli dish. Pudding is one of the healthy desserts of Indian cuisine. Its mostly prepared on special occasions, like Eid festive. It consists of cardamom-flavoured milk in which seven (vermicelli) is added to make pudding which is garnished with dry fruits and dried rose petals. Vegan almond milk could be the best option with great taste.
I have deep memories attached to Seviyan Kheer. I went to my Muslim friend’s place to celebrate the Eid festival. We all used to visit in a small groups for each invitation, we eagerly waited for this festive, as we got a chance to get together and have lots of fun.
After visiting we wish “Eid Mubarak” with hug and later we had offered with some snacks and biryani, as being vegetarian I only had Sevaiyan Kheer. Moreover, It became one of my favourite dessert with lots of memories attached to it.
I learnt this recipe from my friend’s mumma which reminds me the taste of Seviyan she cooks for us on every Eid. I hope you all loved it & tell us how you made memories with this dish.
