FRUIT KESARI

I was planning to make Fruit Kesari for a long time, but somehow couldn’t make it.As i fast on Thursdays for SHIRDI SAI BABA i made it last Thursday and offered it to God.It is entirely a different matter that it was originally prepared for God and we relished on it later.It came out very well and i could eat it the next day too.My daughter loved it very much.I have tasted this fruit kesari in my BIL’S son’s Upanayanam(thread ceremony) for the first time and tried at home several times.Each time i try with a different fruits,the results believe me were really fruitful.As i said this sweet is prepared in many weddings and functions but it is always nice to make something at home and eat piping hot.Sheera or suji ka halwa as it is called in the north, it is always a great treat to eat this simple yet delectable dessert.
