Bread Kaja

Greetings!

We are back at My Mom's Kitchen. After being on a more than a month long break I am so excited to get back to blogging filled with new zeal new ideas (& new props) am ready to take on. ☺

As I mentioned it on our facebook page, last month was our blog's 1st Anniversary & unfortunately My Mom's Kitchen was shut but now it's time to make up the loss and with festive season always arriving soon in India, today, am sharing a simple dessert recipe made out of bread called "Bread kaja".

This recipe is so simple & so easy to make that it's actually all a child's play! It is so easy that it was not my Mom but me making it & that too without her help (plz excuse those blacky edges for it being my first time). It is an under 15 minute recipe so you can make it whenever you crave for something sweet. This soft yet crunchy bread slices will light up your mood.

To put it in one sentence Bread kaja is bread fried and dipped in sugar syrup and served garnished with chopped pistachios.

Ingredients:

1. Bread - 5 slices
2. Sugar - 1/2 cup
3. Water - 1/4 cup
4. Cardamom powder - a pinch
5. Oil - for deep frying
6. Chopped pistachios - 1 tbsp

Method:

• Trim the edges of the bread and cut it diagonally to get two pieces off a slice.
• Heat oil in a pan and deep fry till brown and crisp. Drain them on a paper towel.
• In a saucepan take sugar water and cardamom powder.
• Mix till the sugar dissolves completely. Let the syrup boil.
• Remove from heat.
• Dip the bread slices one by one in the hot syrup. Arrange them on a plate and sprinkle chopped pistachios on them while they are still sticky.
• Serve when they have cooled down completely.
