About Sheer kurma

Sheer Kurma, a rich and creamy dessert, hails from the Indian subcontinent and is traditionally associated with Eid celebrations. The name translates to "milk with dates," reflecting its key ingredients. This indulgent dish is made by simmering fine vermicelli in milk, enriched with sugar, dates, and aromatic spices such as cardamom. It’s often garnished with nuts like almonds, cashews, and pistachios, and occasionally incorporates dried fruits for added texture and flavor. While Sheer Kurma is a delightful treat packed with energy, its nutritional profile includes both pros and cons. The dates and nuts supply essential vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats, while the milk provides calcium and protein. However, the added sugar and richness make it calorie-dense, which may be a consideration for those monitoring their intake. Enjoyed in moderation, Sheer Kurma is a festive, heartwarming dish that celebrates tradition and flavor.
