The detailed recipe with tips and tricks for a tasty, lump-free hotel Saravana Bhavan-style Kesari recipe.

How much sugar should I use?

For Rava Kesari, I usually put a 1:2 rava: sugar ratio. Depending on your sweetness, you can adjust the sugar. Avoid adding less, as it will affect Kesari’s taste. 

Why sugar syrup for Kesari?

Sooji halwa is prepared with minimal ingredients and it is one of the easy sweet. The only challenge is the lumps we tend to get after adding sugar. My pressure cooker Kesari is one shortcut way. For the Kalyana Kesari and  Aval Kesari, we don’t prepare sugar syrup with string consistency. All we need is hot sugar syrup. Make sure sugar is completely melted and syrup boils well. If you use fine sooji, you need not cook rava first; boil sugar syrup and prepare sooji sheera

How to achieve lump-free Kesari?

If you follow this Kesari recipe, you won’t end up with lumpy Kesari. Hot sugar syrup and perfectly roasted rava take care of the texture. I would recommend a few drops of oil, which will complement the taste.

Will Rava get cooked in sugar syrup?

If you use fine rava, it gets cooked well, but make sure you roast the rava well first. Also, add roasted rava to the boiling hot sugar water and cook it on medium flame

How to fix the Kesari sugar?

If you feel the sweetness is less, add sugar and cook on low flame for a few minutes. If you think Kesari is over-sweet, you can add a few spoons of almond flour, but that might alter the Kesari texture; it will become like halwa

Will the Kesari smell oily?

No, Kesari won’t smell oily. Always use flavorless oil for the best taste. The amount of ghee we add makes the Kesari aromatic

Can I add rose essence?

Yes, if you like rose essence flavor, add it after turning off the stove; mix gently.

What is the shelf life of Kalyana Kesari?

Since we don’t add milk, Kesari stays good for around 3 days in the fridge. It also depends on the weather conditions. For best texture and taste, always warm the Kesari before serving
