Sheer Khurma

About This Recipe

In Pakistan, Afghanistan, India, and other regions of Central Asia, Muslims celebrate Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-al-Adha with the consumption of sheer khurma, also known as sheer khurma. It is a traditional Muslim breakfast as well as a dessert. Vermicelli, condensed milk, sugar, and a variety of dry fruits are used to make this dessert. Cardamom, pistachios, almonds, cloves, saffron, raisins, and rose water may also be included, depending on the location.

After the Eid prayer on the morning of Eid, this special dish is offered to the family for breakfast. It is also served to all overnight guests throughout the day. It was originally made from dates from Afghanistan blended with milk from Afghanistan and dry fruits and nuts from Afghanistan. In India, it is changed by adding fried semi-sweets and caramelized sugar.

Similar to kheer, this dish is fairly simple to prepare if the measurements are followed. If not, it could become either overly thick or underly thin. Depending on your needs, the recipe can simply be doubled, tripled, or reduced.

So grab your supplies and prepare this delicious treat. Additionally, you don't have to wait until Eid to prepare and consume it.
