Shir Sewain Recipe From Meghalaya
Shir Sewain was a very heavy dessert with milk and khoya. I had made it like a thick kheer, but it ended up becoming a solid dessert upon cooling.

- 1 cup Semiya / Vermicelli
- 2 ½ cups Milk
- 1 ¼ cup Sugar
- ½ cup Khoya Unsweetened (grated)
- 3 tablespoon Ghee
- 5 tablespoon Raisins
- 5 tablespoon The nut of your choice I used slivered almonds
- ½ teaspoon Saffron Dissolved in 2 tablespoon hot milk
Heat about 1 tablespoon of ghee and fry the nuts and raisins. Drain and keep it aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining ghee. Fry the vermicelli until it is golden brown in color.
Now add the milk to the vermicelli and cook until it softens and cooks well.
Now add the sugar and mix well. Once the sugar dissolves add the grated khoya and mix well. Cook until the khoya dissolves and the mixture thickens a bit.
Add the saffron and the fried nuts and raisins and mix well.
Remove from flame and let it cool down a bit and then serve the Shir Sewain.
