Eid Special Sheer Khurma Recipe:
To make Sheer Khurma, you need about 150 grams of fine vermicelli.
Break the vermicelli into 1-2 inch pieces, so that they cook properly.
Use dry fruits like almonds, pistachios, chironji, raisins and cashew nuts.
You can take dry fruits as per your choice and quantity. Pistachios should be unsalted.
Take fresh dates or figs to add to the sheer. Soak the figs overnight and use it.
For vermicelli, take 3 liters of full cream milk and take a heavy bottom pan to cook the milk.
– First of all, pour half a cup of water in the pan and when the water boils, add milk in it. This prevents the milk from sticking to the bottom.
– Now boil the milk on high flame. If you want, you can also add saffron soaked in hot milk to the milk.
– Soak all the dry fruits in water and then peel them and chop them finely.
– Now add 2 tablespoons of ghee in a pan and lightly fry almonds, pistachios, raisins and charoli in it.
Add 2 tablespoons ghee again in the pan. – Add vermicelli in it and fry it on low flame for 2-3 minutes.
After frying, the color of vermicelli changes and it becomes slightly crispy.
– When the milk comes to a boil and continues boiling for about 10-15 minutes, add 100 grams of condensed milk or milk powder dissolved in water into it.
– Now add vermicelli in milk and cook on low flame for 5 minutes.
Then add sugar, saffron milk and cardamom powder to vermicelli and cook while stirring.
Cook it for about 10-15 minutes until it thickens a bit, then turn off the flame.
Take out the sheer khurma in a bowl and sprinkle some dry fruits on top and serve.
