7 tablespoon

1 cup
sugar
1/2 cup
water
1 cup

Preparation
Step 1
Take a ripe pineapple and peel it nicely. Alternatively, you can easily buy a peeled pineapple from the market. Cut the top of it and wash it thoroughly. Now cut the pineapple into two halves. Chop one of the halves very finely into small pieces. Grind the other half of pineapple in a mixer. For grinding, cut it into big pieces to fit inside the blender. Make a fine paste without using water.
Step 2
Heat 4 tbsp ghee in a pan and put semolina in it. Roast the semolina in ghee for 5-7 minutes on a slow flame till it attains a brown colour. Add more ghee if needed. The consistency should be flowy. After the semolina is roasted completely, turn off the gas and transfer it to a bowl.
Step 3
Now heat the pan again and put ½ cup of sugar and finely chopped pineapple in it. Add one of cup water and let it boil for 8-10 minutes. Put on a lid so that aroma is completely absorbed in the mixture.
