Ingredients:
Long grain rice ½ kg (soaked in water for 20 minutes)
Sugar 2 cups
Yellow food color ½ tsp
Almonds 10 (blanched and slivered)
Pistachio nuts 10 (blanched and slivered)
Cloves 6
Small cardamoms 4
Banaspati Ghee or Cooking Oil 1 cup
 
Method:
Boil 8 cups of water in a pan and add rice, cloves and cardamoms. Cook till the rice is boiled. Strain and drain all the water. Leave to cool. Spread rice on a large dish, sprinkle sugar, food color and slivered nuts on it. Carefully mix so that the color spreads evenly. Now heat the banaspati in a pan, add rice and cook on low heat until all the syrup of sugar dries up. Place the pan on a heavy griddle (tava) and cook for 20-30 minutes. Remove from heat. Fluff it up with a fork and serve.
