1. 1

   First, prepare the rabri (thickened milk). In a heavy-bottomed pan, bring the milk to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer.

   Oko 5 min

2. 2

   Continue simmering, stirring occasionally and scraping down the sides of the pan, until the milk has reduced by about half and thickened. This will take approximately 20-25 minutes.

   Oko 25 min

3. 3

   Stir in the rabri sugar, cardamom powder, and saffron. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.

   Oko 3 min

   Napomena kuhara: The rabri will thicken further as it cools.

4. 4

   While the rabri cools, prepare the sugar syrup. In a separate saucepan, combine the syrup sugar, water, cardamom pods, and saffron. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes until slightly thickened but still pourable.

   Oko 7 min

   Napomena kuhara: You are looking for a sticky, thin syrup, not a thick one. A 1-string consistency is ideal.

5. 5

   Remove the cardamom pods from the syrup and set the syrup aside.

6. 6

   Cut each slice of bread into two triangles. Heat the ghee in a large pan or skillet over medium heat.

   Oko 2 min

7. 7

   Fry the bread triangles in batches until golden brown and crisp on both sides. Drain them on paper towels to remove excess ghee.

   Oko 10 min

   Napomena kuhara: Ensure the ghee is hot enough for quick frying to prevent the bread from becoming greasy.

8. 8

   While the fried bread is still warm, dip each piece quickly into the prepared sugar syrup, ensuring both sides are coated. Do not soak for too long, or the bread will become soggy.

   Oko 5 min

9. 9

   Arrange a layer of the syrup-soaked bread in a serving dish. Pour half of the cooled rabri evenly over the bread layer.

   Oko 3 min

10. 10

    Repeat with another layer of bread and the remaining rabri. Garnish with slivered almonds and chopped pistachios.
