Does anyone have a picture? I want to see what it looks like before I make it.

look for sheermaal in your local desi grocers freezer. Dawn and Salwa are both sellign sheermaal in US this way.
Much better than making it yourself.
there's a sheermal on our dining table right now...and a taaftaan too :p
My nana use to bring it for breakfast in the morning. This word has such a flood of pleasant memories associated with it. I use to like them from a particular small bakery and he use to go out of his way to get it for me.
those frozen sheermals that recently came out at desi stores are a blessing…excellent stuff :k:
tastes just like the fresh ones in pakistan after being toasted in a pan
But it is yummy !!!
oooh frozen sheermals in the frozen section!!! gotta try them!! I tried the frozen rotis and they were not good 
F&B - yeah it is yummy for sure! We finish it all in one day
Not a great pic but this is what it looks like Brit:

I know!!! this is the reason why i asked for recipe. Cuz down in toronto, they are selling a packet of 3 sheermal for 3.49! i think thats kinda expensive still. I wanna try making them on my own, but i hope they turn out tasty as the ones in pakistan
u guys should try sheermal with KORMA sometimes! its soo yummy!
Post a pic when you finish making Furqan. :)
