• 1/4 cup milk (for slurry)
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon green cardamom powder
• Handful of chopped roasted cashews
• Handful of chopped roasted almonds
• 2 medium-sized ripe mangoes

1. 1Add about 1 teaspoon of ghee to a non-stick pan over an induction cooktop.
2. 2Add 1 cup of thin vermicelli and dry-roast or lightly fry for 3-4 minutes on a low flame until it turns a light golden color, then set aside to cool.
3. 3In a larger wok or kadai, add about 2 tablespoons of water, followed by 1 liter of full-cream milk, and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
4. 4While the milk boils, mix 2 tablespoons of vanilla custard powder with 1/4 cup of normal milk in a small bowl to form a smooth, lump-free slurry.
5. 5Once the milk boils, reduce the flame to medium-low, add the toasted vermicelli, and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring periodically until it softens.
6. 6Add about 1/4 cup of granulated sugar and stir until dissolved.
7. 7Pour in the custard slurry while continuously stirring, causing the mixture to thicken slightly and acquire a light yellow hue.
8. 8Add 1 teaspoon of green cardamom powder and the chopped roasted cashews and almonds, and mix well.
9. 9Remove the mixture from the heat, quickly cool it down by placing the wok in a larger basin of water, stirring frequently, then transfer to a steel bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator.
10. 10Peel and roughly chop one ripe mango, then blend it into a smooth, thick puree without adding any liquid.
11. 11Peel and finely dice the second mango into small cubes.
12. 12After the vermicelli custard base is thoroughly chilled, add the mango puree and mix with a ladle until the entire dessert turns a vibrant yellow.
13. 13Add the finely diced mango pieces and gently fold them in.
14. 14Serve the final Mango Sevaiya Dessert chilled in individual glasses and bowls, garnished with fresh diced mango pieces on top.
