Whenever you want to eat something sweet, you can try this instant Meethi Seviyan Recipe, which is healthy too. It is also called as Vermicelli Halwa or Semiya Halwa, because its recipe is similar to Sooji Halwa. If this recipe will prepare with saffron/ kesar then it is just like Seviyan Kesari, a popular sweet recipe prepared in South Indian Cuisine. I have also shared the savory dish prepared with Vermicelli called Seviyan Upma Recipe
