Double Ka Meetha

This is a popular dessert of Hyderabadi cuisine. It is called 'Double ka meetha' because it is made of Bread which is called 'Double Roti' in Hindi. Easy to make and a very tasty sweet dish.

I have made some changes from the original recipe. Hope you all will love it.

In the original recipe, bread slices are dried and then fried in ghee. I didnot dry or fry it, but toasted it. I have added some pomegranate kernals, which tasted really great when we get a bite of it in between. Usually, saffron, dry nuts (cashew, badam, pista) are added. I didnt have saffron, so omitted it and replaced dry nuts with pomegranate kernals.

Before the bread was soaked completely in the milk mixture, i took the photo.

Ingredients

Whole wheat bread - 4 slices
Sugar - 3 and 1/2 tbsp
Water - 2 tbsp
Ghee as required
Pomegranate kernals as required
Milk - 1 cup
Cream - 3 tbsp
Cardamom powder - 1/2 tsp

Method
  • Toast the bread slices and cut each piece diagonally. Rub little ghee on top of the slices. Keep this aside.
  • Boil milk and stir till it reduces and thickens a little. Now add the cream and cardamom powder and let it simmer for some time.
  • In the mean time, in a non stick pan boil water and sugar together till it thickens a bit.
  • Dip each toasted bread slices in it for sometime and arrange it in a borosil or oven proof bowl.
  • Preheat oven at 180 degree celcius.
  • On top of the arranged bread slices, pour the reduced milk and cream mixture.
  • Garnish with some pomegranate kernals and place it in the oven in convection mode 180 degree celcius for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Serve it hot or chilled. Tastes good in either way.
