Sheermal is a mildly-sweet, saffron-flavoured naan popular in the Indo-Pak sub-continent. 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 and spices in the dough gives it a really rich flavour, which makes this usable as a main course as well as a standalone snack that you can have with tea. Do not forget to brush the Sheermal with a little ghee before serving, as it accentuates the aroma manifold. Serve this Mughlai bread with Lajjatdar Paneer and Shahjahani Dal

Sheermal.. a mughlai delicacy.. for bread lovers like me..the aroma of the saffron.. cardamom.. and mild sweetness these breads tempts you to take a second bite.. and serve this with royal paneer makhani.. woow a royal treat to the stomach.. enjoyed it and loved it with extra ghee.. over it.
