Sheer Khurma Recipe

Sheer khurma or sheer khorma is a festival vermicelli pudding prepared by Muslims on Eid ul-Fitr and Eid al-Adha in Afghanistan, Indian subcontinent and parts of Central Asia. It is a traditional Muslim festive breakfast, and a dessert for celebrations. This special dish is served on the morning of Eid day in the family after the Eid prayer as breakfast, and throughout the day to all the visiting guests. It is very popular throughout the Indian subcontinent and Central Asia. The main ingredients used in Sheer khurma are vermicelli, whole milk, sugar and dates. Depending on the region, cardamom, pistachios, almonds, cloves, saffron, raisins, and rose water are also added. Vermicelli is fried in clarified butter. Then milk (sheer) is added and the vermicelli are allowed to cook further. As the mixture thickens, sugar and dates (khajoor) are added along with any other dried fruits. Source taken from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheer_khurma Sheer means "Milk" in Persian and Khurma means "Dates". Today I'm going to show you how to make a delicious Sheer Khurma.
