Quick Shahi Tukda

Shahi tukda is one of the most popular Indian desserts. True to its name it is a ‘shahi’ delight! Pieces of bread are dipped in delicious saffron flavoured sugar syrup and topped with rich and creamy rabdi. Though rabdi is usually made by thickening milk over the stove for hours we have provided a shorter recipe using condensed milk that tastes just as good! Ghee has been used for frying the bread however you could substitute oil for it if required.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 30 minutes

¼ cup condensed milk

and keep aside.

the pan.

mix well and cook on a high flame for 10 to 12 minutes or till the
sugar syrup is of 1 thread consistency.
2. Add the saffron strands and mix well. Keep aside.

How to serve

immediately for 2 to 3 minutes, while turning the traingles once
after 1.5 minutes so, they get evenly soaked.

triangles.
