Sweet Yellow Whole Corn Kernel With Coconut Milk In A Pot

Some Filipinos, they cooked Ginataang Mais with glutinous rice (Malagkit) but for me, I used Vermicelli Kheer. In this recipe, vermicelli strands are roasted in ghee which gives it a nice aroma and flavorful taste. Most Indian people cook pudding using vermicelli Kheer with milk and often serve as sweet accompaniment at lunch or dinner.
