In another saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat. Add the milk powder and stir continuously to prevent lumps. Allow the milk to simmer for 5–7 minutes until it becomes slightly thicker. Add the paneer and continue cooking for another 2–3 minutes.

Next, add the roasted vermicelli and cook until it becomes soft but still retains a slight bite. Stir in the cardamom powder and honey or sugar. Turn off the heat and add rose water for a delicate fragrance.

Transfer the dessert to serving bowls and garnish with chopped almonds, pistachios, and cashews. It can be served warm or chilled.
