Sevviyan Kheer

Seviyan kheer or vermicelli kheer often take its place during Indian festivals or celebration like wedding. Often serve as desserts in the end of a hearty meal, kheer is an ideal choice to mellow down spicy Indian food.

During my childhood, mom used to make this rich seviyan kheer for festivals. I have sweet memories of stealing ghee fried nuts,whenever mom make us this delicious delicacy. We made it a point, the more nuts, the more yummy your kheer is 😆.

The kheer has the tendency to thickened during cooling process thus, add milk according your preference. You may substitute jaggery with sugar but, jaggery enhance the taste of the kheer. An easy yet divine tasting sevviyan kheer is ready for neiveidhyam.
