Sheer Khurma


Tradition Hyderabad dessert prepared especially during festival of Eid. This sweet dish is very popular in India and Mid East. Rich and creamy dish scented with rose water and cardamom powder loaded with assorted nuts and raisins. Deliciously thick and lip smacking sweet which is perfect for any special occasion. Introduced by Moghuls this Hyderabadi dessert is a must during Ramadhan. I made this to clear my nuts stock and truly worth trying. Sheer Khurma or Shir Korma has become one of my favorite dessert and the dish justify the ingredients and effort.
