Instructions

Prepare Mawa

  • Grab a skillet and place it on the stove on medium-low heat.
  • Add 1 tbsp of ghee and ½ cup of milk to the skillet. Stir the milk with a spoon.
  • Add 1 cup of powdered milk to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring the mixture with a spoon until the powdered milk dissolves.
  • Sprinkle sugar, cardamom powder, and heavy cream into the skillet.
  • Mix everything well and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the mixture reaches your desired consistency. Use a spatula to scoop out the broiler, transfer it to a small bowl, and set it aside.

Prepare Malai Milk

  • Take a pan and put it on the stove over medium heat.
  • Add 1 cup of milk and ½ cup of powdered milk into the pan. Stir until the powdered milk dissolves.
  • Take a small bowl and add 2 pinches of saffron to it.
  • Take 2 spoonfuls of the mixture from the pan and pour them into the bowl with the saffron. Stir the saffron mixture with a spoon and let the saffron soak in it.
  • Pour the saffron mixture back into the pan and mix everything well.
  • Add 2 tbsp of sugar to the pan. Let the milk simmer until it’s reduced to about 1/3rd of its original volume.
  • Add ½ tsp of kewra water for the finishing touch. Remove the malai milk from the heat, pour it into a container, and let it cool.

Assemble Malai Bread Rolls

  • Place 5-6 pieces of white bread on a cutting board.
  • Flatten each piece with the help of a rolling pin and remove the crusts.
  • Take a generous amount of mawa that you prepared earlier and spread it onto a slice of bread.
  • Roll up the bread slice firmly so that the mawa filings are wrapped inside.
  • Place the rolled bread slice on a serving dish.
  • Repeat the process with all other bread pieces and place them one after another on the serving dish.
  • Pour the malai milk over the bread slices so that the milk coats the bread evenly.

Garnish, Serve and Enjoy!

  • Sprinkle crushed pistachios on top of the Bread Malai Rolls Recipe for decoration, serve chilled, and enjoy this delicious dessert!
