This Sujir Payesh is a very tasty sweet dish. It is more of Payesh or Kheer than Halwa aka Halua. Basically, while making Doodh Sooji, we boil Semolina with a good amount of milk to make a semolina porridge. It is not as rich as Sooji Halwa, instead, it is comforting. Let me tell you, I loved it this time!
