How To Prepare Vermicelli Kheer Recipe?

• In a pan, heat the ghee or coconut oil over low heat.
• Add the Vermicelli to the pan and roast it until it turns golden and aromatic. Keep stirring to avoid burning.
• Pour in the milk or bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and let the semolina cook, stirring occasionally to prevent lumps.
• Once the milk has thickened, add jaggery or honey. Stir well until it dissolves and adjust sweetness according to your preference.
