Sheer Khurma recipe,How to make sheer korma

Sheer khurma, Sheer korma is a traditional dessert made during eid ul-fitr with fine variety of vermicelli, dates, milk and nuts. The rich kheer recipe, made during the Ramadan day and it's a must one for this festival. Here in Singapore they call the festival as Hari Raya. I wanted to post this recipe of sheer khurma from last year but somehow i could make it only during this year. I remember reading about this Seviyan kheer for the first time in my son's SST book, while reading with him, festivals of India. I made this for my guests yesterday and it was a super hit. The kheer was similar to our semiya payasam but was too rich with nuts, dates and condensed milk. Usually they use fine variety of semiya for this sheer khurma. We get this in Mustafa center. If you don't get this in your place, use normal roasted semiya|vermicelli.

My favourite dishes are Palak Paneer, Paneer makhani and Paneer Butter masala. The aroma of Paneer Butter Masala wafting from the kitchen will always melt my heart. So, here is my mum’s recipe for Paneer Makhani Coins. Very simple and quick one. The almond butter combo with tomato puree gives an amazing taste.Try this recipe at home I promise you will love.
