Sure! Here’s a simple and delicious recipe for making Khurma, a traditional sweet dish popular in various cultures, especially during festivals.

Khurma Recipe

Ingredients

• For the Khurma:
• 1 cup vermicelli
• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 cup sugar (adjust to taste)
• 2-3 tablespoons ghee (clarified butter)
• 1/4 cup chopped nuts (cashews, almonds, pistachios)
• 1/4 cup raisins
• 1/2 teaspoon cardamom powder
• A pinch of saffron strands (optional)
• 2 cups water

Instructions

1. Roast Vermicelli:

• In a pan, heat ghee over medium heat. Add the vermicelli and roast until it turns golden brown, stirring constantly to prevent burning.

1. Add Water and Cook:

• Once roasted, add 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer until the vermicelli is cooked and the water is mostly absorbed (about 5-7 minutes).

1. Add Milk and Sugar:

• Pour in the milk and mix well. Add the sugar and stir until dissolved. Let it cook for another 5 minutes until it thickens slightly.

1. Add Flavorings:

• Stir in the cardamom powder and saffron strands (if using). Mix well.

1. Add Nuts and Raisins:

• In a separate small pan, heat a little ghee and fry the chopped nuts and raisins until golden. Add them to the khurma and mix thoroughly.

1. Serve:

• Serve warm or chilled, garnished with extra nuts if desired.

Tips

• You can adjust the sweetness by modifying the amount of sugar.
• For added flavor, you can also incorporate a splash of rose water or a bit of condensed milk.

Enjoy your delicious Khurma!
