Directions : Shahi Tukda Recipe: A Rich Mughlai Dessert With Crispy Bread And Creamy Rabri Recipe

STEP 1.In a heavy-bottomed pan, pour milk and boil it gently. Simmer on a low flame, stirring in between, until it thickens.

STEP 5.Dip the fried bread pieces for a short span in the warm syrup, ensuring they soak up the sweetness without turning too soft. Arrange them on a serving plate.
STEP 6.Pour the prepared rabri over the syrup-soaked bread, then garnish with some chopped almonds, pistachios and a few saffron strands and serve warm for the best taste.
