  1. Clean and rub the sago pearls with a kitchen towel to remove dust. Grind the cardamom with the sugar to a fine powder, sieve and keep aside. Heat 2 tablespoons ghee and fry the cashewnuts till light brown. Heat the remaining ghee in a vessel and slightly roast the sago.
  2. Add ½ cup water stirring vigorously. Pour the milk and cook sago till it becomes transparent and soft. Keep stirring to avoid lumps and then add sugar and mix well till it dissolves. Continue simmering till reaches the required consistency. Add the saffron. Simmer for a few minutes more and serve garnished with fried cashewnuts.
