Seviyan Dessert

Warm oil in a large stockpot until it shimmers, then add cardamom pods and fry for around 30 seconds.

Introduce vermicelli and fry on medium heat until it turns slightly brown, about 2 to 2 and a half minutes.

Reduce the heat, gradually pour in milk, and bring it to a boil.

Mix in sugar and stir until it dissolves.

Once the milk starts bubbling, lower the heat and continue stirring until you achieve the desired consistency, approximately 15 to 20 minutes. The milk should thicken while the vermicelli retains some texture.

Transfer to a serving bowl and allow it to cool at room temperature.

Garnish with slivered almonds.
