- Heat ghee in a pan. Then add cashews and saute for about a minute on a low flame. Add sooji and fry till the sooji becomes fragrant. Stir continuously so that the sooji gets fried evenly. This takes about 3 to 4 minutes on a low flame. The cashews would also become golden by then. Add milk and stir. Add sugar. If using edible camphor, add now. Stir and bring the kheer to a gentle simmer. You can thicken the kheer more if you prefer. Lastly add cardamom powder, raisins and seeds. Stir the kheer and switch off the flame. Serve hot or cool.
