Wah! Looks scrumptious! Identical items in Bangladesh.

Sheer Khurma is identical to "Doodh Siwaiya" or "Doodh Shemai" (called locally) in Bangladesh, which is one of three different main Siwaiya varieties. The other is Ghee Siwaiya (shemai), see image below. And still another is called "Laccha Siwaiya" made with Laccha vermicelli. I don't know how these got added to local cuisine in Bangladesh, probably during Mughal times.

In south India they do a Payasam

same "vermicelli" in kheer style, it just replace the rice

they do a wet soaked in a sweet milk something version

firni/phirni is just a thicker kheer

the dry hairy/noodly thing is more middle east type influence, soan papri and the rest

Soan Papri (Candy Floss) originated in Turkey as well, like a lot of the Middle Eastern sweets like Baklava.

You can go to any ME grocery store (especially Turkish or Iranian) and ask for "Pashmak" (Pashm meaning hair or wool). It's the same thing as Soan Papri, though not as greasy like the Indian variety. Very labor-intensive to make.

Bhai bazar k khanay yous can't consume because of the risk of amoeba/ giarrdia parasite due to potable water/ fecal contamination.

Hendu-pak gotta get going on personal hygiene.

Only thing yous can safely eat in da subcontinent is super hot temperature fresh kababs/ karrhai/ hot salan/ sabzi/ biryaani/ naan etc.

Any desert/mitthai/ yogurt raita/ firni/ salad cut fruit is a big nono!

If you follow da above regimen, youd be safe.......otherwise god help you.

You'd get vey sick and remember me.......
