Ingredients
- 2 cups whole milk
- 3 tablespoons fine semolina (sooji)
- 3 tablespoons date paste (or 4-5 pitted dates blended with 2 tbsp water)
- 1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder
- 1 teaspoon ghee or unsalted butter
Instructions
- In a heavy-bottomed pan, heat ghee over medium heat. Add semolina and roast for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant and lightly golden.
- Add milk slowly while whisking to prevent lumps. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low.
- Add date paste and cardamom powder. Stir well and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Serve warm or chilled, as desired.
Tips
- For a smoother texture, blend the cooked pudding in a mixer after cooling.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- Avoid adding sugar; dates provide natural sweetness.
