Ingredients
  

  • White Bread Slices
  • ½ cup Sugar
  • ½ cup Water
  • 3 tbsp Milk powder
  • 1 tbsp cornflour
  • ¼ cup Milk
  • 1 cup Refined oil
  • 1 tbsp Desi Ghee
  • 2 cup full cream milk
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ½ tsp cardamom powder
  • ½ tsp Saffron
  • Cashew Almonds, Pistachios, and rose petals for Garnishing

Instructions
 

  • Take white bread slices. Cut the outer brown layer of the bread.
  • Take a serving bowl. Place the bread slices into the bowl. Place the bread on top of each other.
  • Now, we will prepare sugar syrup. Add ½ cup of sugar and ½ cup of water in a bowl. Stir and cook it on medium flame.
  • In the meantime, take 3 tbsp milk powder, 1 tbsp cornflour, and ¼ cup milk in a mixing jar. Blend it to make a smooth and lump-free mixture.
  • Check the syrup now. We do not need a 1-string consistency syrup. The syrup should be just sticky. Keep it aside.
  • Heat 1 cup refined oil and 1 tbsp Desi Ghee in a Fry Pan.
  • Add the bread slices to the Pan. Fry them until they turn crispy. Keep them aside on tissue paper to absorb the excess oil.
  • Take a Kadai and add 2 cups of full cream milk. Let it come to a boil.
  • After a boil comes, turn the flame to medium. Add ¼ cup sugar and mix well. Stir often and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Add ½ tsp cardamom powder and ½ tsp Saffron. Mix well.
  • After cooking for 5 minutes, the milk will thicken and reduce to half. Add the cornflour slurry and mix well.
  • After adding the slurry, the milk will start to thicken. Keep stirring and cook until the milk coats the spoon. Turn off the flame and leave it aside for 5 minutes to let it cool off.
  • First, dip the bread slices in the sugar syrup and place them in the serving bowl.
  • Set the bread in the bowl and pour the leftover syrup on the bread.
  • Now, pour the milk mixture over the bread and Refrigerate it for 4 hours to let it set.
  • After 4 hours, take it out and garnish it with chopped dry fruits like cashews, almonds, and Pista. Also, you can add rose petals.
  • Cit it into pieces and serve it to your kids, family members, and friends.
