Notes
· Use seviyan type vermicelli for making sheer Khurma.· If you feel Sheer Khurma has got thick you can add milk and cook for 2 mins to adjust the consistency.· Usually offered as a breakfast dessert for Eid.· Adding Rose water is totally optional but it gives a nice fragrance to the dessert.· You also garnish with even more dry fruits and nuts while serving.
