Directions
Seviyaan (Vermicelli Milk Pudding),A simple but deliciously sweet milk pudding, made with roasted vermicelli and cooked until a soft custard consistency. A popular dessert in Pakistan and India, and often eaten first thing in the morning on the Muslim festival of Eid. Enjoy this dish warm or chilled. I have a saucepan use just for making sweet dishes, like custard, rice pudding and seviyaan – spicy food tends to permeate cooking equipment, and the same pans use for making meals would not be appropriate for making desserts in.
