It has been a long time since I published my last post. Those who follow me on Instagram and Facebook might know that I was not well. Now I have recovered fully from chicken pox and back to work. Thanks a lot for all the wishes for speedy recovery and for all your prayers. I am deeply touched by all your love. This bread dessert is especially dedicated to each and everyone who took the time to send some love my way. This is a very quick, easy and delicious dessert which takes just 15-20 minutes to prepare. If you have some guests coming, you can make this ahead of time and refrigerate it. Today we will learn how to make bread rasmalai following this easy recipe with step wise pictures.

Ingredients needed
Bread slices – 5-6
Milk – 3 cups
Fresh cream – 1/2 cup
Condensed milk/milkmaid – 5-6 tbsp
Saffron – 6-7 strands
Cardamom powder – 1/4 tsp
Almonds – 1 tbsp chopped
Pistashio – 2 tbsp chopped
Preparation
Boil 3 cups of milk. When it starts boiling, reduce the heat and cook stirring in between for 10 minutes.
Soak 6-7 strands of saffron in 2 tbsp of hot milk. Crush the strands slightly to release the color and flavor.
Method
Reduce the heat and add fresh cream (you can use amul cream) and condensed milk (I used milkmaid) to the milk. Mix well and cook for another 2 minutes on low heat.
Add cardamom powder and saffron soaked milk. Leave it to cool.
Take 5-6 bread slices and using a cookie cutter or a lid or any cup, cut 2 round shapes (circle) from each slice. You will get 10-12 pieces.
Arrange all the bread pieces/rounds in a shallow bowl.
When the milk is completely cool, pour little milk on the bread pieces (just enough to soak the bread).
Then refrigerate the bread and the remaining milk separately for 30-40 minutes.
After 40 minutes, pour the remaining milk as needed on the bread pieces, garnish with chopped almonds, chopped pistachio and sprinkle a pinch of cardamom powder (you can set aside just little milk to add at the time of serving).
Refrigerate for another 3 hours and serve chilled. Enjoy!!
Note – Cream and condensed milk are added to give richness to the dessert. If you do not want to use it, you can avoid cream and use sugar in place of milkmaid but the results will not be the same.

Yummy.
Thx again padhu.But a doubt..
Won't the bread slices just disintegrate? Pl.reply.
No, it will not. You have to handle it gently. One whole day it did not disintegrate. It was over that day itself.
Glad to hear that you have recovered and are doing well. Shubh Navaratri
