Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 2 | Ghee |
| 100g | Raisins |
| 2 cups | Water |
| 1 1/2 | Green Cardamoms |
| 100g | Pistachios |
| 1 | Milk |
| 2 | Almonds |
| 2 | Chironji |
| 2 cups | Vermicelli |
Instructions:
-
Soak Vermicelli: Begin by soaking the vermicelli in water and set it aside to soften while you prepare the other ingredients.
-
Reduce Milk: In a saucepan, heat the milk over low flame, stirring frequently to prevent it from sticking to the bottom. Allow it to cook until it reduces from 1 1/2 liters to just 1/2 liter, intensifying its creamy richness.
-
Prepare Ghee: While the milk is simmering, heat the ghee in a small wok over medium heat.
-
Sauté Vermicelli: Drain the soaked vermicelli and add it to the ghee. You may choose to break the vermicelli into smaller portions either by hand or by purchasing pre-cut vermicelli from the market, making it easier to work with.
-
Add Raisins and Water: Once the vermicelli begins to sizzle in the ghee, add the raisins and water to the wok. Cook the mixture over medium flame for approximately 2 minutes.
-
Bring to Boil: Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil, allowing the flavors to meld together.
-
Incorporate Milk: Pour in the reduced milk, stirring well to combine all the ingredients into a harmonious blend.
-
Add Flavorful Ingredients: Enhance the aroma and taste by adding in the ground green cardamoms, chironji, pistachios, and almonds. Mix thoroughly to distribute the flavors evenly.
-
Remove from Heat: Once everything is well combined and the mixture is heated through, remove it from the stove to prevent further cooking.
-
Serve: Divvy up the sheer khurma into individual serving bowls, ensuring each guest gets a generous portion of this delightful dessert. Serve immediately to enjoy it at its finest!
