Direction To Make

Take 8 bread slices and cut off the edges of the bread. Now cut the remaining pure white bread into a triangle shape and keep them aside.
Heat 1 ¹/₂ cups of milk in a pot on medium heat. Add 1 ¹/₂ cup sugar, 4 - 5 saffron and mix well. Allow it to boil, stirring occasionally to avoid milk sticking to the bottom.
Once it boils, turn off the gas and keep the milk aside.
Heat the ghee in a pan on medium heat. After the ghee is hot, add a triangular shape of bread and deep fry it over medium heat.
Occasionally flip the bread for frying on both sides. Fry the bread on both sides until crispy and nice golden brown.
Take them out of the ghee and place the bread in a plate on a tissue paper to soak up the excess ghee.
Heat the boiled milk again on medium heat,
pour these fried bread in milk syrup. Keep the bread in the milk for a while so that the bread absorbs the milk.
Arrange these soaked breads in a tray in two layers.

Note : Do not keep the bread in milk for a long time otherwise it will become very soft.

Sprinkle some green cardamom powder on the bread and keep the tray aside.

Take 2 - 4 bread slices and cut off the edges. Now finely chop the remaining pure white bread and pour these finely chopped breads in milk and mix well.
Add saffron, green cardamom powder and mix well. Let the milk boil on medium flame while stirring continuously until it thickens. Add rose water and 1/2 cup milk to it and mix well.
