~This pudding can be prepared in pressure cooker or an idli cooker...So be prepared with a steel vessel (in which to cook the pudding )which can be placed inside this...since you have to steam cook this pudding..

Caramel Preparation

~Heat a pan & add 2 tbsp water & 2 1/2 tbsp sugar.

~Stir it well until it becomes brown..(Control the flame otherwise chances that it will get burnt.)

~ Once done, pour it into the vessel you are about to make the pudding.

~Keep it aside to cool & become firm..

Semolina Preparation

~Take another pan then add milk , semolina , ghee , sugar then place it on flame.

Pudding Preparation

~Pour water in the idli cooker or pressure cooker.

~Place a steel plate/ lid / small steel vessel inside the cooker.(any one)

~Place the vessel containing mix on top of this inside the cooker.

~Water should not reach more than half of the vessel containing the mix...(Make sure while boiling the water wont get inside the mixture)...

~If using a pressure cooker no need to put the weight. 

~If using idli cooker you can cover it.

~Cook for about 45 mins. 

~In pressure cooker, once the pressure start coming reduce the flame to medium. 

~In idli vessel use high flame & can adjust  if needed .

 

~Once cooked, remove the vessel from the cooker & let it cool.

~Take a plate where you are going to arrange the pudding.

~After removing the lid of the vessel containing the pudding, keep the plate on the top of the vessel containing pudding and turn it upside down.

~Then the caramelised part will be on top.
