Sheermal (Eggless)

Sheermal Photography

Sheermal Photography

Sheermal is a mildly-sweet, saffron-flavored naan. Sheermal is traditionally made with eggs, but my version is eggless. Sheermal is very popular in the Indo-Pak (Kashmir Part) sub-continent. Actually Sheermal is originated from Iran, but also very popular in Kashmir, Lucknow and Hyderabad. While this Moghul delight is traditionally prepared in a tandoor, it can also be comfortably prepared in a Tava in the convenience of your own kitchen. Using warm milk, milk solids and saffron in the dough gives it a really rich flavor, which makes this usable as a main course as well as a standalone snack that you can have with tea, as it accentuates the aroma manifold. This is traditionally made with eggs, but my version is egg less.

Sheermal another Kashmiri bread that can stay for long periods of time – sweet and salty as most Kashmir breads are. There are various kinds of Sheermal and certain places are famous for their Sheermal as being fresh and crisp.

Kashmiri Sheermal has a special place in Kashmiri cuisine. It is a little thicker variety similar to a round naan in appearance, but crisp and layered, and sprinkled with sesame seeds. Kashmiri Sheermal is typically consumed with hot during breakfast.

Achari Dahi Bhindi ‘Achari’ means pickling whi Achari Dahi Bhindi
‘Achari’ means pickling which is made using a mix of spices. So, we are using pickle masala in this recipe but very less which making this dish flavorful and unique.
There are of course regional variations of Achari dishes. And most popular vegetables are cauliflower, potatoes, okras, etc… yogurt and tomatoes are being added to Achari Sabji which give a double-tangy flavor to curry. It is also perked up with a wide assortment of seeds and spice powders, which give it a super peppy flavor and aroma too.
