1. In a saucepan, heat the ghee. Add the chopped nuts along with raisins. Set aside when raisins get plump and nuts turn reddish brown. In the same pan, roast the macaroni for 3-5 minutes in low heat.
2. Boil 3 cups of water in a pan and add the macaroni, boil for 5 mins.
3. To the ghee pan, add the milk. Increase the heat to med-high and let it come to a boil. Give it an occasional stir so that the milk does not stick to the bottom. Non stick pan works great for this. Also take care not to let the milk burn. Even a little burn spoils the milk. Add sugar and give it a stir.
4. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the milk has reduced in half. Add milk maid and macaroni to this. Keep stirring often. You know its done when the milk has reduced and also the macaroni has cooked and is soft (not mushy). This process takes approximately 5 minutes. Add rest of the ingredients cardamom and half of the roasted nuts. Give it a stir until combined and serve garnished with the remaining nuts.
