Hamdard Khaalis Non-Roasted Shortcut Vermicelli Sheer Khurma
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 30 minutes
Serves: 6
Ingredients
● 1 cup Hamdard Khaalis Non-Roasted Shortcut Vermicelli | 400g
● 1 litre of full-cream milk
● 2 tbsp ghee
● ½ cup sugar (adjust to taste)
● 8–10 cashews, chopped
● 8–10 almonds, sliced
● 2 tbsp pistachios, chopped
● 2 tbsp raisins
● 4–5 dates, chopped
● 3 green cardamoms, crushed
● A pinch of saffron soaked in 2 tbsp warm milk
● 1 tbsp rose water (optional)
● Silvered nuts and rose petals for garnish
Method
Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed pan and roast the cashews, almonds, pistachios, and raisins until lightly golden and aromatic. Remove and set aside.
In the same pan, add the Hamdard Khaalis Non-Roasted Shortcut Vermicelli | 400g and roast on low flame for 3–4 minutes until it turns light golden brown and releases a nutty aroma. Since the vermicelli is non-roasted, this step enhances both flavour and texture beautifully.
Meanwhile, bring the milk to a gentle boil in another pan. Add the roasted vermicelli to the milk and cook on medium heat until soft and creamy, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Add sugar, chopped dates, crushed cardamom, saffron milk, and half of the roasted nuts. Continue simmering for another 5–7 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly and develops a rich consistency.
Finish with rose water for a fragrant touch and garnish generously with the remaining nuts and rose petals.
Serve warm for a comforting dessert experience or chill it for a rich festive treat.
Creamy, fragrant, and packed with festive flavours, this Hamdard Khaalis Non-Roasted Shortcut Vermicelli Sheer Khurma is a timeless dessert that brings warmth and nostalgia to every spoonful. The delicate seviyan absorbs the richness of milk and spices beautifully, creating a luxurious dessert perfect for celebrations, family gatherings, or indulgent sweet cravings.
