How to make :

Sheer Khurma Recipe: Creamy, Silky Sweetness

  1. In a large saucepan, boil 1 ltr of milk. Once it has boiled, allow it to simmer in low heat.
  2. In another pan, add 2 tbsp of Britannia ghee. Once the ghee is hot, add in all your nuts, like cashews, pistachios and almonds.
  3. Once the nuts are toasted, add the charoli.
  4. Chop up the dates and add them to the pan along with the raisins.
  5. Transfer all of this into the simmering milk and stir. Let everything continue simmering. 
  6. In the same pan where we roasted  the nuts, add the remainder of the ghee and roast the vermicelli.
  7.  Once roasted, add that to the simmering milk as well.
  8. Now, let the milk reduce over a low flame.
  9. Once it has reduced, add your sugar in and let it dissolve completely.
  10. Flavour the milk with cardamom powder and saffron strands.
  11. Serve your sheer khurma in a bowl, garnish it with a few nuts, and enjoy!

Special Tip

Make sure to continously keep stirring the milk so that it doesn't burn at the bottom.
