Boil the sugar and water for few minutes to make a sugar syrup.(Tip : You can also skip this step by using store bought sweetened condensed milk.) Add sugar, cardamom powder and saffron to this and switch off.This thick condensed milk is called Rabdi. Boil the milk in a heavy-bottomed pan for about 40-45 min on medium heat stirring often till it reduces to almost 1/4th of its original volume.Dates Syrup - 1 tbsp (If you do not have dates syrup, just fry chopped dates in some ghee and use it as a topping.).Chopped Nuts (Almonds, Pista, Cashews etc) - 2 tbsp.Bread - 4 slices (cut into small cubes/triangles/circle).Recipe for Shahi Tukda Preparation time: 10 minutes Happy cooking and enjoy making this rich, flavourful, tasty and yet simple to make dessert. I shared my recipe with her and now am sharing with all of u. My friend and her family relished it completely and were in all praise for me. Shahi tukda is nothing but a bread pudding, where crunchy bread toasts are topped with rich condensed milk or rabdi with aromatic saffron and cardamon and nuts. And it really gives a royal treat to our taste buds in every bite we take. As the name suggests “shahi” means royal and it is believed that it descended from the royal Mughlai cuisine. It's made compulsorily in the Eid and Ramadan feast. Shahi tukda or double Ka meetha is popular dessert in Urdu Hyderabadi cuisine. I wanted to make a sweet dish that is quick, easy, royal, delicious, something that can be enjoyed both when it's hot and cold. We relished all kinds of sweets, the milk sweets, the jamuns, rosgullas, halwa, jaggery made sweets, anything and everything. The word “sugar” was enough to stimulate our taste buds into eating sweets. In our school days, both I and Varsha were foodies and both of us had sweet tooth. I was very excited and my mind began working fast about setting up the guest room for her, the places we would go shopping and most importantly what all I would cook for her. She was going to be at my house in 2 days from today. I quickly replied asking her the dates of her visit and made quick plans of her staying with me at my place. She was coming to India for a vacation and she would be in my city for 2 weeks.
On a breezy Saturday morning, as I was sipping my coffee and checking my whatsapp messages, I got a surprise message from Varsha, my school bestie. Submitted by Dahlia (Shahi Ka Tukra, Exotic Indian Bread Pudding)
