"Sweet rice aka 'Zarda' for Sunday breakfast ... Made a big batch of this yesterday for an after dinner treat, not often we eat dessert, but I consider this an "anytime of day" little eat. It's even good for breakfast. It's a really easy dish to make! Just the way my mum used to make it... So vintage!! Serve hot or cold. Goes down so well with a cuppa
Hope you're all having a wonderful weekend "

A traditional vintage looking Indian sweet rice dessert known as Zarda by @fredashafi_spiceitup
Zarda (Sweet Rice)
par boil your rice, add natural food colouring to give the different hues (this takes a little practice ) ...
Then in a separate pan, melt some ghee or butter and add a fragrant syrup made with sugar, water, rosewater, cardamom and a cinnamon stick.
Add the par cooked rice and stir through the luscious syrup, until it's fully cooked. I like to add some candied fruit and shredded coconut,
