    Ingredients

    • 1 cup vermicelli - شعرية
    • 1 teaspoon butter - زبدة
    • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil - زيت نباتي
    • 1 cup boiling water - ماء ساخن
    • 3 tablespoon sugar (or to taste) - سكر
    • raw nuts (optional) - مكسرات

    Step by step

    1. In a pot, melt oil and butter. Add the vermicelli and keep stirring on medium heat until it reaches a nice golden brown colour. It will take a few minutes.
    2. Stir in boiling water and sugar. Give it a quick stir, lower the heat to a minimum, cover, and leave to cook until water is absorbed and vermicelli is nice and soft (about 6- 10 minutes)
    3. Serve warm and add extra sugar or nuts to taste.
