Some desserts aren’t just sweet — they feel like a royal indulgence. And nothing captures that luxurious elegance quite like ZAFF Saffron Shahi Tukda. With golden fried bread, creamy saffron rabri, and the delicate touch of ZAFF Saffron, each bite is rich, aromatic, and unforgettable. Perfect for festive dinners or a sophisticated treat.
Method
Pour milk into a heavy pot and bring to a gentle boil. Add sugar, cardamom powder, and saffron (with its soaking milk), then simmer on low heat, stirring often until the milk thickens and reduces slightly. Stir in rose water if desired, then set aside.
Prepare a sugar syrup by combining sugar and water in a small saucepan, boiling until slightly thickened (one-string stage), then flavor with a pinch of cardamom powder and rose water. Remove from heat.
Heat ghee or clarified butter in a frying pan and fry the bread slices until golden brown and crisp on both sides. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Quickly dip each fried bread slice in the warm sugar syrup for just a second, then arrange them on a serving plate. Pour the warm saffron-infused rabri generously over the bread, letting it soak beautifully.
Garnish with slivered almonds, pistachios, and extra ZAFF Saffron strands, serving warm or chilled for a rich, fragrant, and visually stunning dessert.
