How to Make Crispy Shahi Tukda Without Frying, Sugar Syrup, or Rabri – Easy & Healthy Recipe

Shahi Tukda  : Craving something sweet after a meal but don’t want a heavy, oily dessert? Try this quick and healthy Shahi Tukda (Shahi Toast) recipe—made without frying, sugar syrup (chashni), or rabri—yet perfectly crispy and delicious! This guilt-free version keeps the royal taste intact while cutting down on excess oil and sugar.

Why This Recipe Works

Traditional Shahi Tukda involves deep-frying bread in ghee, soaking it in sugar syrup, and topping it with rabri—making it rich but heavy. This lighter version skips all that, using toasted bread and condensed milk (Milkmaid) for a crispy yet creamy texture. It’s faster, healthier, and just as indulgent!

Ingredients You’ll Need

• Bread slices (white or brown)

• Milkmaid (condensed milk)

• Optional: Cardamom powder, saffron, chopped nuts

Step-by-Step Recipe

Step 1: Toast the Bread

1. Trim the bread edges and cut into triangles or squares.

2. Heat a tawa (griddle) on low flame and toast the bread without oil or ghee.

3. Flip occasionally until both sides turn golden and crispy.

Step 2: Sweeten with Milkmaid

1. Instead of sugar syrup, drizzle Milkmaid (condensed milk) generously over the toasted bread.

2. For extra flavor, sprinkle cardamom powder or saffron-infused milk.

3. Garnish with chopped nuts (pistachios, almonds) for crunch.

Step 3: Serve & Enjoy!

• Serve immediately for a warm, crispy treat or chill for a firmer texture.

• Perfect with a cup of masala chai or as a party dessert!
