March 22nd, 2008 by Heena

 

Total Preparation time: 15 minutes

Serves: 2

Part 1: Making the syrup Ingredients:

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup water

Directions:

Mix the above ingredients and let it cook on a slow-medium flame for atleast 8-10 minutes. (The sugar syrup should neither become too watery nor remain too thick). Let it cook and in the meanwhile you may finish part 2 ,3 and 4 – we need the syrup hot/warm when pouring it.

Part 2: Deep fry the bread

Ingredients:

  • 2 slices of bread
  • Oil for deep frying

Directions:

  1. Take the bread and cut with a round cutter into a nice big round shape and deep fry it till it turns to a crispy golden brown color.

Part 3: Dry fruit mix

Ingredients :

  • 1 table spoon dry coconut powder
  • 1/4 tea spoon cardamom powder
  • 4-5 Almonds (cut into thin long slices)
  • 4-5 Pistachios unsalted (cut into thin long slices)

Directions:

  • Mix all the ingredients and keep it aside.

Part 4: Bread and milk mix

Ingredients:

  • 2 slices of bread
  • 2/3rd cup milk

Directions:

  1. Remove the brown edges of the bread and cut into big cubes.
  2. Add milk and cook the mix for atleast 5 minutes on a medium flame, stirring it constantly. Cook it until it has a consistency of a thick porridge.


Putting it all together

  1. Take the deep fried round slice of bread and on it, put a lump of the bread and milk mix.
  2. Put some syrup all over the mix and let it soak. Ensure that the syrup is warm or hot.
  3. Now sprinkle the dry fruit mix and enjoy!

    reminds me of a desert my mother made -similar but we soak the toast in the syrup and put cream-malai on top .This is a lower calorie version and hence better
