Time 1h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 slices bread, crusts removed and bread cut into triangles diagonally
1 cup vegetable oil for frying, or as needed
1 cup white sugar
1 ½ cups water
½ teaspoon ground cardamom
2 cups whole milk
¼ cup raisins
¼ cup chopped almonds
¼ cup chopped cashews

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Place bread triangles onto a baking sheet and toast in the preheated oven until lightly browned and dry, about 5 minutes per side.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry bread triangles, working in batches, until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove bread with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Whisk sugar, water, and cardamom together in a saucepan; cook over medium heat until syrup has reduced slightly, 10 to 15 minutes. Dip bread triangles into syrup until fully soaked and transfer to a plate.
  • Simmer milk in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-low heat. Transfer soaked bread triangles to the simmering milk; cook over low heat until the milk is absorbed into the bread and the fat separates, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in raisins. Garnish with almonds and cashews.

This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pudding turned out too dry. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

This Indian bread pudding was a delightful treat! The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the texture was incredibly soft and moist. I especially loved the addition of the raisins and nuts, which gave the pudding a nice chewy texture.
