Method:

1.Heat ghee in kadai, fry raisins and cashew and keep aside.

2. In the same kadai, add the rava and fry in slow flame stiring continuously careful not to burn for 5 mins till the raw smell goes

3.Boil water, add the rava slowly continuosly stirring with one hand without forming lumps. Now add food colour.

4. When all the water gets absorbed and the rava is cooked well, start adding the sugar and keep stiring for some more time until it leaves the kadai5.Now add elachi,cashew and raisins.
