“Sometimes simple appears complicated and Sheer Khurma is no exception”. With Due respect, no Sir Authentic Sheer khurma is complicated not for chef. As per my mom basically from Maharashtra authentic sheer khurma do not complete without soaking. please do not add dry fruits without soaking or blanching it. Almonds, pistachios nuts always soak overnight for best results, peel and slice them with help of sarota/Adkitta/betel nut cutter now its dry fruits cutter and then proceed for drying them under fan for 2 to 3days. However, as per her it is made by boiling fresh buffalo milk, (which gives it a rich and creamy texture) for 2/3 hrs until it turns creamish in color. Once the ghee heats up, add peeled nuts almonds, pistachios, charoli, kaju until it turns golden in colour & dried dates (no dedicated coconut) take out from pan. Roast sevayi (vermicelli) until it change its colour in the same pan baki sab thik hai sir.
