Shahi Tukda Bites (Bread Pudding-an Easy Party Dessert )

I had some leftover bread slices at home—the edges that often get thrown away, dry out in the bread box or end up as breadcrumbs. But this time, I wanted to do something different. I turned them into something truly special: a rich and creamy bread dessert full of flavour,...

How to make Shahi Tukda Bites (Bread Pudding-an Easy Party Dessert )
Preparation
Cut each bread slice into finger-length strips, then halve them into bite-sized pieces.
Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat.
Fry the bread pieces until golden brown and crisp. Remove and drain on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
Arrange the fried bread pieces in layers on a flat serving dish and set aside.
Milk Mixture
In a saucepan, bring the milk to a gentle boil.
Add sugar and cardamom powder.
Gradually stir in the milk powder, mixing continuously to avoid lumps.
Add saffron strands and stir until the milk thickens slightly to a creamy consistency.
Keep the milk at a pourable, creamy consistency so it can soak into the bread without sitting on top.
Assembly and Serving
While the milk is hot, pour it evenly over the fried bread, ensuring each piece is well-soaked.
Garnish with chopped nuts.
Refrigerate for a few hours until chilled and soaked.
Serve cold and enjoy this comforting dessert!
Tips & Tricks
Fry the bread on medium heat for even crispiness without burning.
Make it ahead for better flavor and texture after chilling.
Store covered in the fridge for up to 2 days to maintain freshness.
