Pineapple Kesari

Ingredients
1 cup rawa
1 cup finely chopped and minced pineapple
2 1/2 cup Sugar (add 2 ½ cups if the pineapple is not sweet)
2 cups Water
1/2 cup Ghee
50 gms chopped Cashewnuts
50 gms black dried grapes
1 tsp Cardamom powder
1/4 tsp saffron (powdered)
1/4 tsp pineapple essence
3-4 drops kesari(saffron) colour

How to make
In 1 tbsp ghee fry the rawa on a low flame till a nice aroma comes and the colour changes. Remove it and place it in a plate and cool. Add cashew and dried black grapes and fry them in 1 tsp ghee. Cook pineapple in its own juice in a closed container for about 5 mts (or) on a medium flame in the gas for 5 min till they become tender. Heat the water and sugar together in a pan and stir them continuously till sugar dissolves and the syrup becomes slightly sticky. First add the cooked pineapple, mix well and then add the rawa completely in one stroke , and keep stirring to prevent lump formation. Add the colour and spices now and the ghee little by little and stir well. Add 1/4 tsp pineapple essence for a very nice flavour. When the kesari leaves the sides of the pan, remove and serve hot.
