Sheer kurma Was on my to do list for a long time . But finally I conquered on my laziness after a long time.
Sheer Khorma or Sheer Khurma (شيرخرما, literally "milk with dates" in Urdu) is a festival vermicelli pudding prepared by Muslims on Eid ul-Fitr in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. It is a traditional Muslim festive breakfast, and a dessert for celebrations. Sheer (شير)(Kshir (क्षीर) in Sanskrit has a same meaning as Milk), is Persian for milk and Khurma (خرما) is Persian for dates. This dish is made from dried dates.
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.This sweet delicacy is the highlight of the Ramadan Id feast. It’s a delicacy where people throng in queue to have the taste of this exotic delicacy at the sweet stalls on that day.
The main ingredients used in Sheer Khurma are vermicelli, whole milk, sugar, dates. Depending on the region, cardamom, pistachios, almonds, saffron, raisins, and rose water are also added.
Dates being one of the main ingredients that enhance this delicacy are by itself nutritious and a complete meal like milk. Generally fresh ripened dates are used in making of Sheer Khurma
I have followed my favourite chef sanjay thummas recipe .I have used fine sev variety which I had bought from total mall in bangalore
It was so delicious that the taste still lingers in my tongue :) Serve hot or chilled as you like it. I loved it chilled.
