First, soak the dates and figs in water in a bowl. Heat 1 teaspoon ghee in a pan over medium heat, add the chopped dried fruits, and roast until fragrant. Remove the roasted dried fruits and set aside on a plate.
2

In the same pan, add a little more ghee and lightly roast the vermicelli noodles until golden. Remove and set aside in a bowl. Pour the milk into the same pan and heat until it comes to a boil. Add the sugar and stir to dissolve.
3

Add the roasted dried fruits and cardamom powder to the milk, then mix in the roasted vermicelli noodles. Add the soaked dates and figs, and stir to combine.
4

Cook until the vermicelli noodles are soft, then turn off the heat. Sheer Khurma is ready. Let it cool in the refrigerator.
5

Serve the chilled Sheer Khurma in serving bowls, garnished with more dried fruits and rose petals if desired.
