Dessert 3 Hr. 55 Mins.

Ingredients

8

8 servings

  • 1 quart oil for deep frying
  • 8 slices white bread, crusts removed and cut into 4 squares
  • 0.25 cup cashews
  • 0.25 cup sliced almonds
  • 2 tablespoons pistachio nuts
  • 1.25 cups whole milk
  • 5 tablespoons evaporated milk
  • 0.75 cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1 pinch saffron

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Fry the bread slices in the hot oil until deep, golden brown; drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Fry the cashews, almonds, and pistachio nuts in the hot oil until golden brown; remove from oil and set aside to cool. Chop roughly.
  • Bring the milk to a gentle boil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-low heat; continue boiling until the volume of milk reduces by about half. Pour the evaporated milk into the pan and add the sugar, cardamom, and saffron; simmer together 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
  • Arrange the fried bread pieces in a shallow dish large enough to allow them to be laid in a single layer. Evenly pour the milk mixture over the bread. Scatter the chopped nuts over the bread. Chill in refrigerator until completely cold, 1 to 2 hours.
