Kasey's creamy arabic bread dessert

mood: relaxed
craving: rain

Salam Alikom (Peace be with you)  to all my Muslim readers and Hola to all my non-Muslim readers. I've been so busy these days, with no time for the net. I hope everyone is well. On Friday I had a big get together (for Jummah) and we had so much fun. All the sisters got to meet my Mom in law. The last person to leave my home was Kasey and that was at twelve midnight. LOL This is Kasey's recipe. Please do try it. It's amazing. 



Nooo cooking involved!!

You need:


9x13 inch rectagle pan
About 1 Litre (3-4 Cups) milk
Pinch of saffron
Caramom pods
rosewater
Sugar
2 cans nestle thick cream
pistachios crusehed ot slivered just for decoration (garnish)
10 slices of white bread (crust removed) regular white bread is good I used it but if you can find milk bread it is yummmyyyyyyyyyyyyy!

FIRST: You bring the milk...cardamom pods...saffron...few splashes of rosewater and sugar (just add some and taste to your liking) all to a BOIL (careful not to burn) crack the cardamom pods before putting in...then remove from heat....







SECOND: Line the rectangle pan with the bread (no crust) the 5th one I cut in half and place as shown....



THIRD: Spread the 2 cans of nestle thick cream on the bread...no woorries if it falls through the cracks just make it even
*NOTE: You can add some sugar here or honey...but I didn't...it would be yummy though! My DH suggested that smile.gif






NEXT: Add the second layer of white bread with no crust....



THEN: Remove cardamom pods and pour the warm milk over the bread and then garnish with pistachios...crushed...chopped...slivered whatever you like...and Place int he fridge...keep always in the fridge until all eaten...






YOU CAN eat it right away it is soooooooooo yummy!!!!!!!!

ENJOY it!!!!!!!!! whoo.gif




final whisper: dedicated to miss sweet tooth, herself.

salaam alaikum,

Thanks for sharing! Do you know if I can substitute the saffron? Is thick cream the same as heavy cream? Im wondering if I can use light cream instead of heavy cream?
Thanks!
