welcome. there is another thing called 'khaajaa' ... my dad used to say to me..."khaajaa beTaa, khaa jaa!" ... lol

Re: hi just a quick question..

^ It's actually really yummi-licious!

People make it different ways which affects the taste, texture and flavour.

You have kiwaami sevaiyn which is sweeter and more sticky, sevaiy'on ka zarda (I think that's drier and hails from Punjab - though I could be wrong), some people even call it sewaiyon ka halwa.

I personally love to eat kiwaami sewaiyn with khatta yogurt - omg, is it divine!

Re: hi just a quick question..


u mean...qimaamii sewaiiNyaaN? [qimaam = thick sticky syrup]

Re: hi just a quick question..

You all are making this more complicated for me lol We make it two ways plain vermicelli with sugar in a little oil and the other way is with milk, sugar and nuts etc.

Re: hi just a quick question..

i used to say say-wiyan but then the most common pronunciation I have heard is sawa-yyan !

sem-wiyan sounds so cute sweets :D

Re: hi just a quick question..

Wait WAIIIIIIT WAITwhat????? People actually say semviyan right?!?!?! IN YO FACE JAFRI!

Yes semviyan is cutest word ever!

Re: hi just a quick question..

Yes, I've definitely heard it before. Jafrii stop picking on sweets for her Punjabiness.

Re: hi just a quick question..

I think right pronunciation is Se-vay-yaan (two y's). There is no H shound or M sound in it.

Re: hi just a quick question..

Acha? Tell us what a H s*h*ounds like? :p

Re: hi just a quick question..

Se-vi-yaan or Sa-vai-yaan.

Jafri is my boss. :D

Re: hi just a quick question..

OH MY GOD. There’s something else we eat in Ramzan, putting it in milk but I forgot the name of it.. Kind of like puff pastry when cooked but thicker an crunchier. Unless it’s the same thing. I don’t even know.

Sweet, you said your mom is like ‘wth’ at you when you say semviyaan!! That doesn’t even sound good, like why put an m in the middle of it?
