Indian Bread Pudding Recipe

Indian Bread Pudding

From saramathew84 15 years ago

This is a famous Indian dessert made out of bread and mik.This is one of our favourite and is called Shahi Tukra in India

Soak Saffron in about 2-3tbsp of milk and cut the pistachios into small pieces
Cut the bread pieces diagonally after removing the crust
Heat Ghee in a wok and fry the bread in it till golden
Place them on tissue paper to drain excess ghee.Set Aside
Boil milk
Add Condensed milk. We like it really sweet so we add about 4tbsp.You can add more or less as per taste
Keep stirring while the milk boils along with the condensed milk .Keep boiling till it reduces to almost half its quantity.
Once done,switch off the flame and let it cool slightly.
Add the rosewater,saffron and the milk in which it was soaked,half of the pistachios and cardamom powder.Mix well
In a dish place the fried bread slices.
Pour the milk on top them.It should be enough to soak the bread in it.The bread should be immersed in it.
Garnish with the rest of the pistachios and whole cardamom
Let it Chill in the fridge for at least an hour before serving.

I can't wait to try this. My children are adopted from India and I am trying to find things; Indian; that are EASY to fix for them. I have very little confidence in my cooking ability that it will taste anything like it should but I will try it.
