Best 6 Sheer Korma Vermicelli Eid Dessert Recipes

SHEER KHURMA RECIPE (VERMICELLI MILK DATES PUDDING)

Steps:

• Heat 3 tablespoons of ghee in a large heavy bottom pot over low heat.
• Once the ghee is hot, add cloves, almonds, cashew nuts, raisins, pistachios, and chironji to the pot and fry until they are lightly browned (3-4 minutes), stirring continuously.
• Remove them to a plate using a slotted spoon.
• Note - The nuts get burned in just a few seconds. So be very careful while frying them. Also, sliver them thickly and not finely. They will keep browning in the residual heat, so remove them from the pot as soon as they turn light brown.
• Add 1 tablespoon ghee and vermicelli to the same pot and fry on low heat until they turn light brown (3-4 minutes). Stir continuously while frying to avoid them from burning at the bottom of the pan.
• Remove on a plate.
• Increase the heat to medium.
• Add milk and dates to the same pot and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add the roasted vermicelli and roasted nuts to the pot and cook for another 10-12 minutes until vermicelli is softened and khurma is slightly thickened. Stir frequently while cooking to prevent scorching at the bottom of the pan.
• Stir in sugar, saffron soaked in milk, and cardamom powder, and cook for another minute.
• Serve it warm or chill it for a few hours before serving.

• 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.
