In a bowl soak the saffron strands in some warm water.

Meanwhile, keep the water for boiling in a pan. Add sugar to this.

Next, add water soaked saffron and once it comes to rolling boil and sugar melts completely, switch off the flame.

Cover the sugar syrup and keep it aside.

Heat a thick bottom pan/ wok.

Add 1 tbsp of ghee and saute all the dry fruits one by one for a minute on low flame.

Take them out on a plate. Next add remaining ghee.

Once warm, add dry roasted Semolina into the pan, stir it well on low flame for a while.

There is no need to roast further as here we have used roasted suji.

It might get lumpy but don't worry, keep stirring it until the halwa becomes smooth in texture.

Once the mixture starts to leave the sides of the pan and comes together, lower the flame and cover it.

After a while check if all the syrup is absorbed. Switch off the flame.

Garnish it with dry fruits and serve hot.

Enjoy your Rava kesari.
