Steps:
- The day before making the sheer korma, put the dried dates in a saucepan with 1 cup (240 ml) of the milk, bring to a boil, and then simmer for 20 minutes. Leave to cool, then chill.
- If you haven't got roasted seviyan you will need to dry roast the vermicelli over low heat until it starts to darken.
- Cut the almonds (and pistachios, if using whole ones) into slivers. If including coconut, chop the flesh into ½-in (1.5 cm) cubes. Break the vermicelli into small pieces.
- Put the remaining milk in a pan, add the soaked dates and their milk, and bring to a boil.
- Meanwhile, heat half the ghee or butter in a frying pan over medium-high heat and flash-fry the vermicelli with the cloves and cardamoms, then add to the boiling milk. Add the sugar and stir until it has dissolved. Take the pan off the heat and discard the cloves and cardamoms.
- In a separate frying pan, heat the remaining ghee and quickly fry the almonds, pistachios, coconut, cashews, and raisins until the nuts darken-you do not want to burn them.
- Add the mixture to the vermicelli, reserving a little to sprinkle on top if you like. Serve the milky vermicelli warm or chilled in individual glass dishes.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh, ripe fruits and vegetables, and high-quality spices, will make a big difference in the final dish.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and flavors. Sheer korma is a versatile dish that can be adapted to your own taste preferences.
- If you're short on time, you can use canned or frozen fruits and vegetables. Just be sure to drain and rinse them well before using.
- You can also use a slow cooker to make sheer korma. Simply combine all of the ingredients in the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Conclusion:
Sheer korma is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken or lamb, and it can be served with rice, naan, or roti. Experiment with different spices and flavors to find your perfect combination.
