Kesari:
In a pan add ghee and cashews and cook until it turns light brown and then add semolina and fry until it slightly changes colour and gives out beautiful aroma. Turn off the flame and rest for a minute.
Now add sugar, milk, colour/saffron and water and mix well until well combined and turn on the heat to medium low and cook until the mixture comes nearer.
Now add the pineapple syrup and mix again and cook again until desired consistency.

If you use more ghee then you will get grainy kesari.
You can add few chunks of pineapple in your syrup if you like the chunks in between every bite....but i like smooth kesari so i didn't add chunks..
