Ingredients

3 tbsp assario seeds or garden cress seeds ¼  cup water 2 cups milk A pinch of saffron A pinch of cardamom 2 tbsp honey for sweetness Slivered almonds

Step 1

The seeds should be soaked in water until they plump up.

Step 2

Bring the milk to a boil in a saucepan.

Step 3

Heat for around 10 minutes.  Add the saffron, cardamom and the soaked seeds.

Step 4

Stir well. Cook for another ten minutes, stirring occassionally till the mixture is slightly thickened.

Switch off, add the almonds and the honey. Mix well and enjoy warm.
