This particular dish is way more complicated than how Priya made it. In rajasthan it is known as Shahi kesar rabri toast. It is called Shahi (royal) because of the complexity of the dish as well as the cost and time required to make it. Until a decade ago an average Indian household wouldn't have been able to afford this dish twice a month. Generally instead of using heavy cream we use full fat buffalo milk and cook it over medium low heat untill it reduces to 1/5 of the volume. Also Everytime the milk fats creates a layer on top we skim it to side. Add sugar after reduction and add kesar(saffron) and cardamom and cook it for a little while. This milk concoction is called Rabri. Furthermore we deepfry the white bread in ghee till golden brown. It's like fried dough at that point. Assemble the way Priya did it and enjoy after chilling it.

Really? You add 2 tablespoons of water to the bottom of the pan to coat the pan and that is sufficient to prevent the cream from sticking and burning? After you stirred the cream and will surely have mixed the itsy bitsy quantity of water into the sigfnificantly larger volume of cream and thinned it just a microscopic tad? Looks like one of those things that don't really make sense but is still followed just because someone else did it and thought it did the trick and prevented sticking and burning. SMH.

So basically a not so shahi, shahi tukda? I got nothing against you but please do your research before you make Indian dishes because except the yogurt video none of the Indian dishes that you have made come even close to what the dish actually tastes like. Big platforms like these making such mediocre food actually makes people think that Indian food is that subtle and tasteless. Americanize but you got to know when the dish crosses the line of what it should taste like.

Really ashamed of people like her who don't do proper research and get a platform. There are so many westerners who make Indianish food but do their proper research and give due respect. She so casually called Indian people shameless without knowing anything about those movies. Girl go get educated. I wonder who published her book when she does not know the basics of the dish she is writing about. Shame on you

Her eating the whole elaichi wasn't even surprising, I might not like it, but my mum loves it. Another thing to do is to fry the bread with ghee, soak it in chaashni or basically a very saturated sugar-water solution and then put something like, idk, milkmaid? or something on top of it. Then chill it and enjoy

awesome recipe; i'm adding a pinch of saffron to the cream. if i feel like it, i'll clarify some butter to toast the Friends Toast (haha); if i'm too lazy, canola oil is what's at hand. there may or may not be milk (whole, no effing %ages) in my fridge, but there will ALWAYS be heavy cream

crap recipe, even worse presentation. non-stop tiresome chatter, and typical indian phone calls to parents in line with karan johar nri romance 'it's all about loving your lovings'. the recipe is hidden in the verbal diarrhoea somewhere, what is the point of wading through this crap.

This is a hyderabadi sweet called shahi tukre. Y make a desi dish but call it a toast instead of its real name? Ashamed much? Wanna appear koool? No wonder Indians born n brought up in the US are the biggest wannabe. They are neither Indian nor American

Girl always research before cooking, toast need to deep fried in ghee, that is not rabri its too watery and u don't eat them soaked like that, there has to be some crunch. In short this is not shahi toast, so dont ruin its name and taste.
