Heat 1 tsp ghee in a non stick pan and fry the cashews till golden. Set aside. Add the raisins to the same pan and fry till they puff up. Set aside.

To the same pan add 1 tbsp ghee and add the rava. Fry the rava in a low-medium heat until it starts turning golden brown and gives out a nice aroma. Set aside.

Add water to the pan and bring to boil. Add the rava slowly and keep stirring in a medium heat until the rava is cooked. Make sure no lumps are formed.

Once the rava is cooked well, add the sugar, kesari color and rest of ghee. The mixture will start to loosen up now. Make sure no lumps are formed.

Cook stirring continuously until it starts to thicken, starts leaving the sides of the pan. Also it would have absorbed all the ghee.

Now add cardamom powder and garnish with fried cashew and raisins.
