3. Now add chopped raisins, almonds and cashews in the ghee and fry for 2-3 minutes.
4. Add semolina into the pan and roast for 2-3 minutes.
5. Do not burn the ingredients.
6. After this, add grated coconut and roast for until it slightly fragrant.
7. Take it out and keep it aside.
8. Now add grated mawa to the same pan and roast for 5 minutes. You will see that the mawa changes its colour.
