Double Ka Meetha:(Hyderabadi dessert)

Its one of the simple dessert i love and crave for. Its kind of traditional mughal dessert in Hyderabad. Its generally served after heavy mughal biriyaani. Its delicious and very easy to make.

Ingredients:

White Bread slices 8- each made into 4 pieces
Whole milk 1 cup
Fresh cream 1 cup
Butter/Ghee 1 cup
Cashewnuts 1/4 cup splitted
Almonds sliced lengthwise
Sugar 1 cup
Cardamon seeds powder 1/2 spoon.

Variation: One can still use brown/wheat bread instead of white bread or regular.

Method:

In a wide pan, heat ghee. When it is hot enough....fry bread slices till golden color. Then leave them over kitchen tissues for a while and reserve in a wide tray.

Fry cashewnuts and almonds in butter/ghee.....till golden color. Then spread them over our reserved fried bread.

Heat sugar with 1/2 cup of water. When it comes to syrupy stage add milk and cardamon seeds powder. Boil for some more time. Or until it reduces into half. Run this sugary-milk over the bread tray. Let the bread slices get really well soaked in it. Refridgerate them for atleast 2 hours or so.

After 2 hours....further add cold fresh cream and serve in a small plate/bowl.

Since it has double cream.....its called 'Double ka Meetha'.
