1/4 cup raisins
1/4 cup cashew nuts (chopped)
1/4 cup almonds (skinned and chopped)
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
5-6 tbsp sugar
4 tbsp water
ghee
Steps:
- In a pan, heat ghee.
- Fry the raisins, almond and cashew nuts and keep aside.
- In the same pan, add the sugar with 4 tbsp water. Keep stirring on medium flame till it is caramelized and keep it ready. Be careful not to burn it.
- In a large dish, cut the bread into small pieces.
- Add about 2 cups of milk to soak the bread slices.
- Add 2 eggs to the mixture and mix well.
- Add the raisins, cashew nuts and almonds and mix well.

- In a pressure cooker, add water. Keep a stand/small vessel and place the container on top of the vessel. Cover the lid and steam without putting the whistle/weight for about 15 minutes. Check with a knife/toothpick. If it comes out clean, it is cooked. It should not be sticky.
