Ingredients
- 3 Bread Slices
- 2 teaspoon Butter
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 400 ml Milk
- 1 pinch Yellow Food Color
- ⅓ teaspoon Rose Essence Substitute: vanilla essence
- Powdered Milk To Sprinkle on Top
Instructions
Toast The Bread
- Cut the crusts of the bread, then make a diagonal slice.
- In a skillet, melt some butter and spread it evenly, then toast the slices over low heat until they become crispy and achieve a light brown color.
- Set them aside, but avoid covering the toast.
Prepare Sweet & Creamy Milk
- In a saucepan, add sugar, milk, and a touch of yellow food coloring, then mix it well.
- Bring the milk to a boil and let it simmer for 3 to 4 minutes. Keep stirring to ensure a creamy texture.
- Add a few drops of rose essence to impart a floral aroma to the milk.
- Stir until the milk is well combined and begins to thicken.
Dunk Toasted Bread in Milk
- When the milk starts to thicken, dip the slices of bread into it, and as they soak up the milk, carefully place them on a serving platter. (Be cautious not to leave the toast in the hot milk for an extended time, as it will become mushy).
- Repeat this for all the slices, arranging them on a platter like a stack, and then sprinkle with powdered milk.
Garnish
- Finally, sprinkle powdered milk to make it extra tasty.
- You can also sprinkle almonds and pistachios to add more crunch.
