Reviews
Pretty good! I added a few cloves, some saffron and a cinnamon stick to make it spicier. The one thing I would say about the recipe is that the times are way off. It took me 5 mins to bring it to a boil and about 10 to get the vermicelli cooked. By that time the liquid had almost completely boiled off, but I just added some more milk like the recipe suggested.
Nice! I had some spare pasta laying around and no dessert and this recipe fixed that! I used elbow macaroni, a can of condensed milk, and cinnamon and nutmeg instead of cardamom. I also added a little shredded coconut that I had on hand. The key is having the patience to wait until it goes from soup to pudding in the saucepan! Thanks for the recipe!
