• ½ tsp cardamom powder
• 20g cashews, fried

👩‍🍳 How to make Rava Kheer

1. Fry nuts (3 mins, medium heat): Heat ghee, fry cashews until golden, remove. Fry raisins until plump, set aside.

3. Add milk (1 min, high heat): Slowly pour milk while stirring to prevent lumps (visual cue: mixture thickens immediately).
