Indian Dessert

[Darienne]

I looked back over several years in this sub-Forum and found little about desserts.

I am looking for a recipe for a wonderful dessert noodle pudding. The noodles are the size of angel hair and I recall sugar and milk being the other two main ingredients. We had a house fire in 1995 and I lost all my notes, this pudding being in it.

Thanks.

The dessert sounds like Kheer Sevian, also known as Sheer Khorma by Muslims.

Indian Home Cooking by Suvir Saran has a recipe for holy vermicelli pudding - Id Kee Seviyan or Sheer Khurma. He says it is served at the end of the fast of Ramadan. Here's a simple version:

Thank you both. In the meantime I found a recipe for the same thing called Semiya Payasam which is very popular in the Kerala area. It has long been a favorite of my DH and we used to make it at home long ago. Now we do it again.

Thanks again. Darienne
