Double ka meetha recipe-Double roti ka halwa

July 26, 2011 by PadhuSankar 40 Comments

Are you bored of preparing bread sandwich and bread toast out of bread, here is a very popular and delicious Hyderabadi dessert Double roti ka meeta Double roti means bread and meeta means sweet, hence the name double ka meeta.I learnt this dish from a Hyderabadi friend.

Double ka meeta-Double roti ka halwa

Double Roti ka Halwa recipe (Indian bread pudding/Bread Halwa)

Double ka Meeta


Double ka Meeta

 Prep Time : 15 mins

 Cook Time : 20 mins 
 Serves: 2
 Recipe Category: Dessert
 Recipe Cuisine: Indian-Hyderabad
 Author:Padhu Sankar

   Ingredients needed

   Bread – 9 slices
   Milk – 2 1/2 cups
   Sugar- 3/4 – 1 cup (as per your taste)
   Kesari color – a pinch (mix it with a little milk)
   Cardamom powder – 1/4 tsp
   Oil for frying
   Ghee – 1 tbsp for frying nuts

   Nuts and dry fruits

   Raisins – 10
   Cashew nuts – few
   Pistachio – few
   Toasted almonds – few

Preparation


Remove the edges of the bread, cut it diagonally and sun dry it or air dry it (under the fan) so that it does not absorb much oil.


Deep fry the bread in oil until brown on low flames to prevent the bread from getting burnt. Keep it aside. Traditionally it is deep fried in ghee but I have used oil.


Fry raisins, cashew nuts in ghee separately. Keep it aside.


Boil milk and add kesari color to it.

Method

Take just enough water to soak the sugar. Add cardamom powder and boil the sugar water. Prepare sugar syrup. The sugar syrup should neither be thin nor thick.


Add the fried bread to the sugar syrup and cook for a few minutes.


Then add milk, simmer and cook uncovered till it reaches a semi solid state. It should not be dry.

Garnish with cashew nuts, pistachio, raisins and toasted almonds.

Enjoy it warm or cold as it tastes great both ways. I prefer to have it warm.


Note – Both the milk and the sugar syrup should not be hot as there are chances of the milk curdling. So make sure, the milk is at room temperature while adding to the sugar syrup or the sugar syrup should be at room temperature.

    Hema – both milk and the sugar syrup should not be hot. One should be at room temperature. That is a general rule. I will update it

      Yes, you can use wheat bread to make it healthy though white bread tastes more delicious.

    I added little ghee oil and shallow fried bread. At the end recipe tasted yummy BUT, why is it so oily? I mean oil or ghee is dripping out. How can I avoid this?

    Can we add bread without frying, because all the oil absorbed by bread is unabsorbed at the end. Despite being good in taste, I don't know what to do to get rid of oil that make an appearance at the end.

      You can tawa toast the bread in ghee on low flame. It will take time but that will not be as delicious as deep frying. But definitely not bad as I have tried it.
