My Favourite Sweet Toasted Vermicelli for Ramadan image

I do have another recipe for Seviyan posted, but that is a creamier more dessert like dish. I prefer this one as it is not as sweet & is brilliant for Suhor (the meal before dawn). Seviyan is the name of the toasted vermicelli used to make sweets aswell as savoury dishes in countries such as Pakistan & India. It is eaten throughout the year but comes into it's own during Ramadan. You can buy Seviyan / toasted vermicelli at most Asian stores & you can find it in the international isle of the larger supermarkets. Otherwise you can toast your own fine vermicelli in the oven! The fruit & nuts I refer to is the tropical dried fruit & nut mix you buy which typically has coconut, papaya, pineapple, banana, raisins & peanuts. If you don't want to use this then you can use slivered almonds & roughly chopped pistachios instead.

The vermicelli didn't get crispy enough for me. I think I'll try cooking it for a little longer next time.

This dish is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the syrup.

I added a little bit of cardamom to the syrup and it gave it a wonderful flavor. I highly recommend trying this variation.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover vermicelli. I had some leftover from a stir-fry and this was a great way to use it up.

The vermicelli was perfectly crispy and the syrup was just the right amount of sweetness. I will definitely be making this again.

This sweet vermicelli dish is a delightful indulgence. The combination of crispy vermicelli, sweet syrup, and nutty flavor is perfection, and it's easy to make too.
