Cracked Wheat Dessert (Fada Lapsi)

Weekend is going on, so lets make something Indian Sweet with our full Gujarati menu. So I thought of making today cracked wheat dessert i.e. fada lapsi which is called traditionally in Gujarat. It is also prepared on auspicious occasion as a tradition.

This is very healthy recipe with very few ingredients and tastes really good....

 Ingredients
For making Fada Lapsi you will need:-
1 cup of cracked wheat
2-1/2 cups of water
3 tablespoon of sugar (you can adjust as per your taste)
Cardamom powder as per taste
Few cashew nuts and raisins
3 teaspoon of ghee/ unsalted butter

Method
Take a pressure cooker pot and add ghee to it and then when butter gets melted add  cashew nuts to it and saute for some time. After cashew nuts gets golden brown add cracked wheat to it and saute it for 5-6 minutes or till it get medium brown at low to medium heat. Then add water, sugar, raisins  and cardomom powder to it.
Mix it well and then close the pressure cooker and allow it to whistle 4-5 or as per your pressure cooker (till all water is absorbed by cracked wheat). Allow it to cool down completely and then serve at room temperature or hot as required. You can also add shredded almonds at the time of serving.


Enjoy this recipe on the sunny weekend!!!
