DOUBLE KA MEETA.

This is the famous sweet dish of Hyderbad which is commonly served at Muslim weddings.

Not many people in other regions may be aware of this dish. Its very rich and delicious.

I thought of sharing this particular dish with all the people who may be interested in trying out new recipes. Its quiet simple and i am sure will be enjoyed by everyone.


I am giving below details of the recipe.


Preparation time: 45minutes


Ingredients

Bread - one loaf (medium size with about 12 slices)

Khoya - 150gms

Sugar - 1-1/2 cups

Hot Milk - One cup

Elachi(cardamom) powder - 1/2 tea spoon

Kesar (Food color) - 1 Pinch

Dry fruits (kaju, almonds,raisins) - for garnishing


Method

Cut each Bread slice in two triangulr pieces and deep fry in hot oil until it becomes brown and crispy. Arrange all the bread pieces in a bowl and add hot milk. Ensure milk is poured on all pieces.


Add water ( appx 2 cups) to sugar alongwith Kesar color and cardamom powder and boil until 1 string consistency is made. Pour this syrup and add khoya to the bread pieces.

Mix well and garnish with Dry fruits. If Khoya is not available you may add the famous khalakand sweet as an alternative.


There you are, it is now ready to serve in a bowl with one dollop of vanilla ice cream.
