WATCH HOW TO MAKE THE RECIPE: 

METHOD:

---------------

1. In a kadai, add half of the ghee and roast the chopped almonds, blanched and chopped pistachios, chopped cashews in simmer until they become golden brown in color. Remove them from flame and similarly roast the chopped dates, and raisins in the same ghee, and transfer to a plate.

2. Now, add the remaining ghee, and roast the vermicelli in low flame for 2 mins or more until it becomes golden brown in color evenly. Transfer it to a plate. Remove the excess ghee from the kadai if needed.

3. To the same kadai, add the milk, and cook in high flame until it starts to boil. Then reduce the flame to simmer, and cook for 10 - 15 mins or until the milk is reduced to approximately 3/4th.

4. Next, add the roasted vermicelli, and cook for 7 mins or until well cooked in low flame. 

5. Next, add the cardamom, roasted nuts and dryfruits. Mix well, cook for a min, and switch off the flame. Allow the mix to come at room temperature.

6. Finally, add the rose sharbath and mix well. Serve chilled or at room temperature. That's it!!

Your simple n super delicious Rose Sheer Khurma is ready to be served!! Njjoy!!

NOTE:

-----------

1. Use any nuts of your choice.

2. You can also add a pinch of saffron at step 5, but I skipped it.

2. Rose sharbath can be replaced by rosemilk essence, rose syrup, roohafza etc. Whatever used, it should be added to the Khurma only at room temperature, else it becomes bitter.

3. Since rose sharbath contains sugar, I didn't add sugar or any sweetener while cooking. If you are adding essence, add it after step4 when the vermicelli is wellcooked.
