How to make Seviyan !!

Seviyan Kheer (aka Vermicelli Kheer) is a sweet milky pudding made with vermicelli, milk and butter (or ghee). It’s an easy popular dessert across India and Pakistan, and is often made at festive occasions like Eid.
I absolutely love seviyan kheer because it is so comfortingly delicious, it reminds me of my childhood days, I suppose. It doesn’t need much flavoring, because the vermicelli noodles toasted in butter lend such a nutty and delicious flavor to the milk, that it’s almost perfect. Pair it with slivered pistachios (my favorite dry fruit) and you’ve got a lovely simple and homely dessert.
