Apple Kesari with Nutmeg


Ingredients
Cooking apple [medium] :1
 Rava: 1 cup.
Sugar: 1 cup.
Hot Water: 3cups.

Saffron threads: 2 pinches. Milk: 3 tbsp.
Nutmeg powder : 2 pinches 

Almond flakes: 1 tbsp. 
Raisins: 1 tbsp.
Ghee: 4 tbsp.


Method
1. In 1 tbsp of ghee fry the almond flakes and raisins. Keep aside.
2. Soak the saffron in the warm milk.
3. Peel, core and chop the apple. Keep aside.
4. Heat 1 tbsp of ghee in a kadai and add the rava. Heat through until you have a pleasant aroma coming through.
5. Add the water. Keep stirring as there should not be any lumps.
6. Once the rava is cooked add the sugar, nutmeg and the saffron soaked in milk and mix well. 7. The mix will become watery first but will come together in a few minutes.
8. Add the raisins, almonds, chopped apples and the rest of the ghee and mix well.
9. Once the mix starts to leave the side remove from flame.
10. Serve warm.

You can substitute fresh pineapple instead of apples and add a few drops of pineapple essence for a completely different flavour.
