Recipe
1
In a heavy-bottomed pan, bring the full-fat milk to a boil and simmer on low heat, stirring occasionally, until it reduces to half its volume to form a thick rabri.
2
Stir the condensed milk and a pinch of cardamom powder into the rabri, then set it aside to keep warm.
3
In a separate pan, combine sugar and water, heating until the sugar dissolves completely to form a single-thread consistency syrup.
4
Infuse the sugar syrup with saffron strands and a dash of cardamom powder.
5
Heat ghee in a wide pan and shallow-fry the bread triangles until they turn golden brown and crisp on both sides.
6
Dip the fried bread slices into the warm sugar syrup for a few seconds so they absorb the sweetness while remaining slightly crisp.
7
Arrange the soaked bread slices on a serving platter and generously pour the warm rabri over them.
8
Garnish with chopped pistachios and almonds before serving.
