Semiya Kesari (Vermicilli Kesari) is an alternate for Rawa Kesari. This delicious dish is served in many marriages now a days. The preparation is same as the rawa kesari. Nowadays many of us are trying different sweet dishes. Rawa kesari is the conventional sweet dish in my childhood. But now, we all are opting for some different kesari or sweet dishes. In kesari, we can make many varieties like Pineapple Kesari, Beaten Rice (Aval) Kesari, Semiya kesari, Banana Kesari etc. Vermicilli kesari would not be more soft than other types of kesari because the cooked vermicilli will become slightly become hard after we add sugar. But if we cook the vermicilli is nicely cooked and if we are generous in ghee then this would be a very tasty and yummy kesari!
