Best Sheer Khurma Recipe
Enjoy the best Sheer Khurma recipe this festive season. Ramadan and Eid are beautiful occasions that evoke warm feelings of love, laughter, family, and friends.
Ingredients
- 1 liter Milk
- 1 cup Thin Vermicelli
- 4 tbsp Sugar
- 8 numbers Dates
- 20 Pieces Almonds (Roughly Chopped)
- 20 pieces Pistachios (Roughly Chopped)
- 2 tbsp Chironji seeds (Cuddapah almond)
- 3 tbsp Ghee (Clarified Butter)
- ½ tsp Cardamom powder
- 10-15 Strands Saffron (Optional)
Instructions
- First, soak the saffron strands in 2-3 tbsp of milk and keep it aside.
- Add some ghee to a pan. Once the ghee is hot, add roughly chopped almonds, cashew, pistachios, and Chironji. Fry for 2-3 mins on low flame until light golden brown. Remove it on a plate. (Note- keep stirring properly while frying because the nuts get burned in just a few seconds.)
- Add 1 tbsp ghee to a pan, and add crushed vermicelli. Fry them on medium heat until it turns golden brown. Keep stirring constantly, while frying to avoid them from burning. Remove it on a plate. (Note- If you are using pre-roasted Vermicelli, then fry only for 40-50 sec, or there is a chance that it can burn. Use very thin Vermicelli for sheer khurma.)
- Add 1 Liter of milk, cardamom powder, sugar, and Chowara (dried dates) to the pot and cook it on a medium flame for 20 mins so that the flavour and the colour of the Chowara get mixed properly in the milk, keep stirring the milk while cooking.
- As the colour of the milk turns slightly brown, add the roasted Vermicelli, roasted dry fruits, and saffron. Cook it again for 10 mins, till the vermicelli is softened & the sheer khurma turns slightly thick.
- This delightful dessert is ready to be served. You can serve hot or chill, as per your preference.
