This flavourful milk drink is synonymous with Ramadan. It’s enjoyed on the fifteenth night, marking the halfway point of the month.

Ingredients

  • 45 g butter
  • 70 g vermicelli
  • 4 cardamom pods, cracked
  • a pinch of saffron
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 litre milk
  • 1 t vanilla essence
  • a dash of rose-water
  • 75 g sago, soaked for 30 minutes in water
  • 1 x 290 g can dessert cream
  • 1 x 385 g can condensed milk
  • chopped nuts (pistachios, almond flakes, etc.), toasted, to garnish
  • dried rose petals, to garnish (optional)

Cooking Instructions

1. Melt the butter in a saucepan over a medium heat and braise the vermicelli, cardamom, saffron and cinnamon. Once the vermicelli has browned, add the remaining ingredients, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, and bring to a boil.

2. Once it has started boiling, remove from the heat and serve immediately garnished with nuts or dried rose petals.
