Sweet Semolina Balls Recipe
Step 1: Roasting the Semolina
Begin by roasting the semolina to enhance its flavor and give it a delightful nutty aroma.
Heat the ghee: Place the heavy-bottomed pan on medium heat and add the ghee.
Add the semolina: Once the ghee is hot, add the semolina to the pan.
Roast the semolina: Stir continuously to prevent burning. Roast the semolina until it turns golden brown and releases a fragrant aroma. This should take about 7-10 minutes.
Set aside: Remove the roasted semolina from the pan and set it aside.
Step 2: Preparing the Sweet Base
Now, let’s prepare the sweet base for the semolina balls.
Heat the milk: In a small saucepan, heat the milk until it’s warm. If you’re using saffron, add the strands to the milk to infuse it with a rich color and aroma.
Combine the ingredients: Return the roasted semolina to the pan and add the warm milk. Stir continuously to prevent lumps from forming.
Add the sugar: Once the semolina has absorbed the milk and thickened, add the sugar and continue to stir.
Flavor with cardamom: Crush the cardamom pods using a mortar and pestle and add the powder to the mixture.
Incorporate the nuts and raisins: Add the chopped nuts and raisins, stirring to distribute them evenly throughout the mixture.
