Blogging Marathon# 28: Week 3/ Day 3 Theme: Sindhi Dishes Dish: Kheerni with Seviyan & Sago (Semya/ Vermicelli & Saggubiyyam Payasam) For the 3rd day of BM# 28, I wanted to make a Sindhi dessert, and since I was making for myself, I didn't want to deal with elaborate process and lot of leftovers. After looking high and low for a simple Sindhi dessert I found this Kheerni recipe on Alka's Sindhi Rasoi. She made her kheerni with crushed up seviyan (semya/ vermicelli).
