Re: Sawain recipe

in butter?

Re: Sawain recipe

You just boil them add sugar and ghee and fry... but I don't know details...yes, waiting for recipe Sehar!

Re: Sawain recipe

My mom also makes sawaiyon ka zarda kind of thing... I don't like sawaiyan so I have never bothered to learn how she makes them...lol...

Nikki baji, I guess my mom adds litle bit milk too to the oil, sugar and stuff....

Re: Sawain recipe

my mom makes them so good...and i love them...(no I am not copying Sehar here...:D...)
i tried 'em a few times but they never turn out well so i have given up on them...

she first kinda "bhoon-ifies" them in ghee and then adds some hot milk/sugar/cardamoms to it and puts it on 'dum' for a while...i guess its all about the proportions to get the perfect zarda sawaiyaan....

sehar post your recipe....and i might give them another try...:)

Re: Sawain recipe

^^ I was close :D

Re: Sawain recipe

Sawaain is Bihari and so is the pronounciation :snooty:

Waiting for recipe, I dont wanto add any milk to the recipe, i hate Sher Korma type thing.

Re: Sawain recipe

^^ No they are not sheer khorma type, you can use water instead of milk but milk gives them rich flavor i guess and they look like zarda and taste different not like sheer khorma.

Re: Sawain recipe

I basically follow the recipe that Chip6 posted, except I use water instead of milk.

as LUSI said you just add a very little amount of milk and that too is completely absorbed up by the sawaiyaan and they remain separated and dry and are not floating in milk,like the sheer khorma thing…

i hope someone posts an alternative recipe which u can try…:slight_smile:

are you bihari?

Code, tum har waqt bad dua hi daitay rahnay :naraz:

Re: Sawain recipe

shining star, i used the recipe you listed and the sivayan turned out perfect. The only thing i didnt do was make a seperate syrup. I just bhoonafied the sivayan in butter (3 tbsp seems enough for 1 cup) and then directly added sugar and water and turned the heat high. After most of the water evaporated i put on dum. Perfect ratios of ingredients. Thanks for sharing.

:phati:
