Instructions
In a heavy based or non stick pan, gently dry roast the semolina unitl it is light brown.Add the butter or ghee and fry for 5 to 7 minutes, constantly stirring, until it is golden brown. Over a low heat, stir in the sugar, ground cardamom, almonds, sultanas and raisins. Gently fry for one minute, stirring, before stirring in the milk. Cover and leave for 1 to 2 minutes.
Then raise the heat and cook until the mixture thickens and becomes moist.
