Every thing about RAVA KESARI,pineapple rava kesari, pineapple rava kesari recipe. :

Rava Kesari is a lip-smacking south Indian sweet which is simply divine and a quick-fix sweet, that can be prepared in a jiffy with rava, sugar, ghee and cardamom. Rava Kesari is usually made on festive seasons like Diwali, Navratri Pooja, or for any special occasions at home. This dessert recipe is among those desserts that can be rustled up quickly when you have sudden guests at home. There is one thing that gets people away from trying kesari. They end up with sticky kesari or end up with lumpy kesari. But this is a fool proof recipe and the kesari just glides in your mouth. Rava Kesari makes you feel like digging into a piece of cake as the texture is similar – crumbly and delicately soft. While milk, ghee and sugar had worked their magic in combining all the ingredients and lending it a smooth texture, cardamom had contributed to intensify the flavor and of course, it is incomplete without the mention of saffron. The prized spice is the final ingredient which completes the dish, giving it that beautiful orange tinge. Some tend to substitute it with orange food coloring, but there’s nothing like being natural and pure.

"A delicious meal cooked in ghee". Ghee is prepared by simmering butter, which is churned from cream, and removing the liquid residue. Many of you might be avoiding ghee in your diet. But it’s far better than using butter. It has a high burning point making it more desirable for cooking, especially Indian cooking as we like tadka in almost everything. Anything in moderation doesn’t do harm to our bodies. We need to know our limits. Well it’s a personal choice to consume ghee or not but do consider its benefits.

Preparation Tips:

• There are two stages in the process where there are chances to get lumps. One is while adding rava to boiling water and the second one is while adding sugar to cooked rava. But the key is, adding slowly rava or sugar and stir properly & constantly.
• To check the correct consistency, touch the kesari after u pour it in the plate. If it is non-sticky, kesari is done!! If not, again keep on fire and mix for a minute. It will be done. Kesari hardens when it cools down. So, make pieces when it is warm.

Health Tips:
