You can check the correct stage of cooked rava by keeping wet hands over the mixture. If it doesn’t stick to your hands it means it is cooked.
Now slowly add the sugar to this cooked rava and you have to be very careful in this stage. You will get lumps easily. to avoid this add sugar slowly with one hand and stir the mixture continuously with other hand.

The mixture will now become watery. You can get the consistency by stirring it for some time. Now add the kesari colour and slowly add the ghee and stir till u get the desired consistency.

Rava kesari

Enjoy your sweet.

Notes:

  1. Add sugar only when the rava is completely cooked.
  2. Cook in a low flame after the sugar is added, else lumps will be formed.
