I think its one of the easier ones to make. Asian's cuisine can be very difficult to make and to follow especially if they are trying to make it into like 10-15 minutes video.
as a kid cardamom was horrifying, its such a strong and strange taste that you never expect in like biryani or anything now i love it in kulfi and stuff but still scared to eat any large amount of biryani for fear of biting into it
@@tihbohs Just to clarify I am an Indian also. So, I know my spices. During my trip to India, I tried mukhwas and loved it. After that, I started eating fennel seeds whole but cardamon pods never.
Tip for anyone trying the recipe: fry the bread in ghee. If your heart doesn't start to give up on you after a piece of shahi tukda, it needs more ghee!
Or clarified butter if you can’t get real ghee with live and active cultures. I would even suggest a splash of buttermilk in the heavy cream, sugar, and cardamom mixture.
@@ThisIsYourOnlyWarning At least at home in India, we don't really use ghee for any fermenting properties or active cultures - at least not consciously. Ghee IS just clarified butter, and as such, really easy to make at home (nudge nudge). It should smell closer to caramel or brown butter than anything sour. It's used entirely for the high smoke point, extreme richness, longer shelf life and that the fact that it's gut-bustingly delicious. Surprised the chef in the video chose to omit it, though she seems to be following the family recipe. Buttermilk isn't traditional, but if it tastes good, who cares? :P I'd encourage trying it to see how it pairs with the other flavours - we definitely put saffron and cardamom with our yoghurt in Indian dishes and desserts, so I bet some tangy buttermilk would taste nice!
'Shahi Tukda/Tukra' meaning 'Royal Peices' is a Mughal recipe. The Muslim rulers of India were famed for the luxurious food that was eaten in palaces- Biryani is an example of this. Shahi Tukra is v. popular during Ramadan/Eid when people use leftover bread to make this.
I have a question then: the recipe that is made in the video doesn't follow the steps that I'm used to see for making shahi tukda. Is it because it's an americanized version?
@@ipereiramoral Yes, this is the not the traditional recipe. You should be able to find one on TH-cam. You could even try making "Double Ka Meetha" which is similar to this but better in my opinion
Right?!?! I either love, or am in love, with every person they stick in front of the camera. The group of personalities they managed to get to collaborate together is second to none.
Wonder what would happen if brad or someone said “how black do we want our bread? As black as Wesley snipes”. He’d probably be fired I bet. Idc priya said it because it shouldn’t matter period if it’s a joke but I’d guarantee brad would be fired
@@JimboBillyBob Because making jokes about people of color carry more weight than jokes about white people. people of color have been the butt off jokes for hundreds of years, profited off of, and there were real repercussions for poc who were made fun of, but not for white people. im white and i thought her joke was so funny. jokes about poc can lead to lethal effects, but very rarely for white people.
Im honestly here for PRIYA, what a queen. Its called Shahi because it was served to Indian Royalty. In most versions its fried in ghee and topped with saffron and most importantly silver leaf(chandi ka wurk!!!) for that shahi aesthetic, but this is whats great about Indian/Pakistani food, the most extravagant dishes can be eaten humbly, and often differently by region and family.
No, she simply took shortcuts. It's not about regionalism or anything. She didn't do her research on the recipe, don't give her credit where she doesn't deserve any. If she said that she wants to make a light version of it, sure...why not. But pretending like it's the original way to make it, not the right to do
Joy Machado Ok don’t give meh hate or anything but... Her recipes and book is called Indian-ISH...so they’re aren’t the exact recipes and are more Americanized..
@@nana.2511 I understand what you are trying to convey, but there is a lack of research on her part and it kind of shows. A classic example of someone who cooks indian-ish food would be madhur jaffery. She really did her work, and it showed in her cooking and recepies. She truly blended a lot of food from the West and East, but she did her work. She truly knew flavors. That's the least we expect. When you have an example like madhur, take it a notch above her work, not regress. Also, most of the other hosts on BA, do their research before presenting in front of the camera, Carla, Claire, Brad would never be like...oh I don't know what the origin of this recipe is, or what does this word even mean. It's off putting when someone doesn't know what they are doing but yet having a platform
Joy Machado Yeah I see what you mean. Bc I’m a Bengali which I guess is close enough to being Indian And my mom tries to Americanize her recipes. Idk about this but Priya probably is new to this kind of cooking
This particular dish is way more complicated than how Priya made it. In rajasthan it is known as "Shahi kesar rabri toast". It is called Shahi (royal) because of the complexity of the dish as well as the cost and time required to make it. Until a decade ago an average Indian household wouldn't have been able to afford this dish twice a month. Generally instead of using heavy cream we use full fat buffalo milk and cook it over medium low heat untill it reduces to 1/5 of the volume. Also Everytime the milk fats creates a layer on top we skim it to side. Add sugar after reduction and add kesar(saffron) and cardamom and cook it for a little while. This milk concoction is called Rabri. Furthermore we deepfry the white bread in ghee till golden brown. It's like fried dough at that point. Assemble the way Priya did it and enjoy after chilling it.
It wouldn't be Shahi without the ghee. A dish fit for a king - that's Shahi Tukda. It's the rich ingredients - ghee, pistachio, cream - that make it so
I love how every chef in the Test Kitchen really bring something new and different to their videos. I never expected to learn so much about Indian culture with her videos but I love every minute of it. Priya, Brad, Claire, Carla and the others are what keep me coming back again and again.
God she ate the cardamom pods whole. I genuinely think it makes the food fragrant and all that like I put in curry, but if i accidentally chewed it. My appetite just drop, props to her.
@@totodialed here's an accurate statement, most people incarcerated are black, so someone could say they want their windows tinted as black as Leavenworth.....still a racist statement. Maybe we should just leave color out of our conversations, why did she have to make a joke about white people? She didn't, she obviously has racial bias.
Ok please don’t give any hate for me or anything please... But her book IS CALLED INDIAN-ISH..not Indian...Indian-ISH. So her recipes aren’t exact and are more Americanized for people.
Priya is my favorite BA chef....I absolutely love how she shares family recipes and their origins....and how she shares her family as well. Bravo Krishnas!!
Lmao, the "imagine your bother has just come home from engineering school" comment, made it sound like this wasn't a common dish made, only special occasions. Made me laugh thinking there iare some sibling one-upings haha. But I like these Priya segments, makes me think of indian street food. A lot of meatless, bread included, finger foods.
@vishu singh There can't be any Hindu Shahis... Either they are Persians who adhere to the Hindu Dharama, or they are Urdu speaking Hindi Muslims, otherwise the word Shah and Shahi is not of their tradition.
Made this last night! This is such an easy and accessible way of making shahi tukda, and it’s delicious! Two changes-pan fry the bread in ghee, and (most importantly) add a pinch of salt in the heavy cream when adding the sugar and cardamom. Those two changes make a world of difference!
priya's father is my favorite member of the bon appetit kitchen (literally all of the videos with her I've watched? she's talked to her dad in them... but I also have only watched about five of her videos)
Don't think I've ever been so tempted to try a bread pudding recipe. Priya's got a great charm about her, and her Test Kitchen recipes so far have been a lot of fun!
Just tried to make a quick test batch of this, and it really is surprisingly delicious. Greater than the sum of its parts. Like Priya said, the bread wasn't soggy at all, it was very pudding-like, almost a bit like the texture of the biscuits in Tiramisu. Since the test run went well, I think I'll make this for the family christmas dinner. Lovely recipe!
Every time I watch a Priya video I learn something new that is really useful in the kitchen. I can’t believe I didn’t know about chonk and recipes like this give me so many more ideas for meals that aren’t as boring
Indian French Toast. I’m going to try this, though I’ve rarely tasted cardamom but I know I love cream soaked homemade biscuits mixed with fresh strawberries
i still have to thank you guys for such a light-hearted video and few interactions between cooking bcs i think it's that sense of familiarity that brings me back to you guys. made me feel less depressed and better for my mental health after a hellish day of being lonely in a crowd you don't even relate to.
That’s a great idea! I was just researching Malaysian food before watching this video. I have learned a whole lot! It’s definitely a melting pot of multiple different cultures and has so many different recipes to offer. Is there anything you would suggest trying? Is everything spicy? Im not a huge fan of overly spicy foods. Don’t get me wrong though, I do like mildly spicy food lol. I’m definitely interested in the rice made with coconut milk. I’m also interested in trying different curries, other than the traditional one I make with curry powder and coconut milk or Greek yogurt. I know it’s probably not an exact replica, but I’ve tweaked it a bit to my liking.
@@ThisIsYourOnlyWarningit depends on what tyoe of cuisine your looking for. Generally our food is tingling on the tongue but its very flavourful, we add coconut milk not to cut down the spiciness but to compliment it. The coconut ric3 is definitely doable, with coconut oil and not the milk. You'll get the same fragrance without much of the fattiness. But very similar
BA always features a Malaysian restaurant called Kopitiam in NYC. It's pretty up and coming and from the looks of it it seems authentic. So if you're from NY, do check it out! But yes, I do agree that Malaysian food has always been outshined by other cuisines in the region or claimed by others as their own and needs more attention in general.
Wow this recipe is so easy to make. I remember a friend of mine made it for a Potluck dinner and she spent hours making it. It was delicious nonetheless. So rich and yummmy but the original recipe takes a lot of time to make as its made with full cream milk, clarified butter, a lot of dried nuts and gold or silver foil. I have had this only at weddings. Will try this recipe soon. Thank you 😊
@@kevinjohnston4923 imagine invading india for its spices and still not using any of it in your food Ps. Have you ever tried British food? It tastes like tears except tears have some salt. Most of the Brits agree on how bland their food tastes compared to other cuisines
The mumford and sons concert reference took me out lol. My brother and I went to one a few years back and we were DEFINITELY the minority there. none the less, it was one of the best concerts I've ever been to. Also, great recipe!
I made this TWICE already, it's that good! Instead of the 6 tbsps of sugar, i put in three for the second time around (bc was a bit too sweet for my taste). I also put in three pods of cardamum instead of the four because the first one turned out a bit overpowering for my taste!
Krish ain't superman.... Wait.. Why am I clarifying that... 🤦♂️ I don't wanna remember anything about that abomination. And shahi means royal. URDU. It is called that cuz it was served to the Mughals and the other royal households. Using Ghee instead of oil, garnishing it with edible silver and saffron and cutting the bread tukdas diagonally makes it more the Royal Toast.
@@blabhblaja ah.. To be honest I forgot how he got his powers. The movie was a sequal to "koi mil gya" an E.T. esque movie where the Alien forms a bond with a specially abled person. And gives him powers. Krish is the son of said person and has super strength super speed etc etc, he can't fly though. Btdubs... Krish is short for his name Krishna.
@@VardhanShrivastava I know right! Didn't like Krishh at all. They could have worked on the costume and his powers and his story a bit more. And even though I have nostalgia for Koi Mil Gaya and it had genuinely amazing songs, I cringe at the thought of Hritik Roshan acting like a caricature of a man will mental illness. Retrospectively, that was not a good portrayal.
This looks so good! My favorite thing in the world is various no-cook or super simple bread puddings. I'm chronically ill, so don't often have the energy to cook, but I love doing it, and when I really want something sweet and rich they're my go-to. Heck, I even found a mug recipe for one, that's rapidly becoming a family favorite and I can't make it single serve any more. I bet they'd love this so much! I'll have to try to make it over the holiday vacation for sure.
Her eating the whole elaichi wasn't even surprising, I might not like it, but my mum loves it. Another thing to do is to fry the bread with ghee, soak it in chaashni or basically a very saturated sugar-water solution and then put something like, idk, milkmaid?? or something on top of it. Then chill it and enjoy!!
First, this looks so good! Second We need more Priya! keep her videos coming she is great! Third, and most importantly, I'm so glad Priya is a fellow Ravenclaw!
Priya, you explain every step so well. As someone who watches many professional cooking videos, you shine bright like a diamond. Never been a fan of bread pudding but I must give this a try.
I generally keep the crust on, because it helps holding every piece of bread together after they have absorbed the cream/custard, making it easier to serve.
im so glad priya made shahi tukrey, she's really bringing our best secret recipes to bonappetit!! my version of this requires shallow frying the bread, then dipping it in a sugar syrup infused with rosewater and kewra prior to topping it with the cardamom cream - a little excessive I know, but its truly the best way! I also like to add almonds and cashews to the topping, toasting the nuts as well to bring another layer of flavour.
This is so true. Every Indian family has pet names for the relatives. You probably don't know your uncles, and aunts real name because for everyone they're pet name + uncle/aunt.
@@msc-w1g her uncle's name is Hemant, which has many meanings depending on the region, but a popular meaning is 'early winter' which is considered the most pleasant weather, it is also a name for Buddha. Before i tell you about nicknames, keep in mind they are terms of endearment and have a warm feel to them, but the english translations just dont do them justice 😅 Gabbu means chubby, often used when a child is healthy and squishy (¿😂) I hope that helps :)
The crust of the bread fried in ghee is better than the whites of the bread. I would not recommend cutting it. Its like delicious sweet and creamy croutons.
It's my favorite thing in the world when Priya calls her dad. You can just hear how proud of her he is every time.
I Makeup Stuff that's ur favorite in the world? Sad
@@Mr12purple I'm sorry, trump. You must have never heard of hyperbole. You don't know how to not be insufferable? Sad.

If someone placed a mento in your biryani you'd react the same way as you do with the cardamom. On its own it's pretty good.
U guys are thinking of cloves... Or cinnamon.... Cardamom is very commonly eaten as a mouth freshener if present in close proximity in India.
@@tihbohs Just to clarify I am an Indian also. So, I know my spices. During my trip to India, I tried mukhwas and loved it. After that, I started eating fennel seeds whole but cardamon pods never.
Tip for anyone trying the recipe: fry the bread in ghee. If your heart doesn't start to give up on you after a piece of shahi tukda, it needs more ghee!
Came to the comments section to say this! If Ghee's not available, butter will work as well, but Ghee is best!
It definitely seems like that would be much more delicious.
Or clarified butter if you can’t get real ghee with live and active cultures. I would even suggest a splash of buttermilk in the heavy cream, sugar, and cardamom mixture.
@@ThisIsYourOnlyWarning At least at home in India, we don't really use ghee for any fermenting properties or active cultures - at least not consciously. Ghee IS just clarified butter, and as such, really easy to make at home (nudge nudge). It should smell closer to caramel or brown butter than anything sour. It's used entirely for the high smoke point, extreme richness, longer shelf life and that the fact that it's gut-bustingly delicious. Surprised the chef in the video chose to omit it, though she seems to be following the family recipe.
Buttermilk isn't traditional, but if it tastes good, who cares? :P I'd encourage trying it to see how it pairs with the other flavours - we definitely put saffron and cardamom with our yoghurt in Indian dishes and desserts, so I bet some tangy buttermilk would taste nice!
Thank you! Fry the bread, it has to ooze ghee - that's what adds to the "shahi". 😁
Tip: Save the shell of the cardamom pod and throw it in when you make chai. There is still a lot of flavor in the shell

i still have to thank you guys for such a light-hearted video and few interactions between cooking bcs i think it's that sense of familiarity that brings me back to you guys. made me feel less depressed and better for my mental health after a hellish day of being lonely in a crowd you don't even relate to.
I really wished they have a Malaysian writer , our food is not as well known as other foods but it is a melting pot of so many cultures.
Somebody get Chef Wan on the phone please.
That’s a great idea! I was just researching Malaysian food before watching this video. I have learned a whole lot! It’s definitely a melting pot of multiple different cultures and has so many different recipes to offer. Is there anything you would suggest trying? Is everything spicy? Im not a huge fan of overly spicy foods. Don’t get me wrong though, I do like mildly spicy food lol. I’m definitely interested in the rice made with coconut milk. I’m also interested in trying different curries, other than the traditional one I make with curry powder and coconut milk or Greek yogurt. I know it’s probably not an exact replica, but I’ve tweaked it a bit to my liking.
I don't think I've ever even seen a Malaysian restaurant in the U.S. I don't feel like I've met very many Malaysian immigrants either.
@@ThisIsYourOnlyWarningit depends on what tyoe of cuisine your looking for. Generally our food is tingling on the tongue but its very flavourful, we add coconut milk not to cut down the spiciness but to compliment it. The coconut ric3 is definitely doable, with coconut oil and not the milk. You'll get the same fragrance without much of the fattiness. But very similar
BA always features a Malaysian restaurant called Kopitiam in NYC. It's pretty up and coming and from the looks of it it seems authentic. So if you're from NY, do check it out! But yes, I do agree that Malaysian food has always been outshined by other cuisines in the region or claimed by others as their own and needs more attention in general.
Food itself inherently is great .... all the stories we surround it with and nostalgia it evokes makes it priceless ..
Omg, the Friends and Mumford and Sons comment hahah I love Priya
Priya seems like such an awesome person! Glad she's getting more screentime
Ghee (Clarified butter) and not oil, girl!!!
Wow this recipe is so easy to make. I remember a friend of mine made it for a Potluck dinner and she spent hours making it. It was delicious nonetheless. So rich and yummmy but the original recipe takes a lot of time to make as its made with full cream milk, clarified butter, a lot of dried nuts and gold or silver foil. I have had this only at weddings. Will try this recipe soon. Thank you 😊
"How white should my bread be?"
So white that it wears a MAGA hat to funerals and believes salt makes food spicy.
Haha I'm glad that this comment hasn't gotten any likes. I'll give you one, you know, for the effort.
@@mohorovski It has now
Imagine proclaiming that the people who colonized India for spices think that salt is spicy.
@@kevinjohnston4923 imagine invading india for its spices and still not using any of it in your food
Ps. Have you ever tried British food? It tastes like tears except tears have some salt. Most of the Brits agree on how bland their food tastes compared to other cuisines
Vani K except British cuisine does incorporate the spices into the food. You’re simply uncultured.
You can really tell how precious every recipe Priya shares with us is. Thank you!
“Cast of friends, Mumford and sons concert” is SENDING me
I love Priya, her videos are great and she's super fun to watch. Thank you for bringing her back so much.
The mumford and sons concert reference took me out lol. My brother and I went to one a few years back and we were DEFINITELY the minority there. none the less, it was one of the best concerts I've ever been to. Also, great recipe!
I love seeing Andy and Brad in the background...they are my favorite!
was she munching on cardamom the whole episode? LOL
A lot of people here in India treat it as a mouth freshner
Just a tukra
I made this TWICE already, it's that good! Instead of the 6 tbsps of sugar, i put in three for the second time around (bc was a bit too sweet for my taste). I also put in three pods of cardamum instead of the four because the first one turned out a bit overpowering for my taste!
Priya is delightful. Such a wonderful addition to the crew.
Priya and Claire are my favorites from the BA Test Kitchen !!!!
I cannot believe you just pop cardamom pods into your mouth like that, when I'm always crying when I bit into one by accident when I eat biryani xDDD
Priya, you make me happy. Thank you for this wonderful content. Its ridiculous how amused I am to see ya!
i love how 9 times out of 10 she's munching on something as she instructs.
Priya and Claire are so entertaining in their videos. Love them both!
Krish ain't superman.... Wait.. Why am I clarifying that... 🤦♂️ I don't wanna remember anything about that abomination.
And shahi means royal. URDU. It is called that cuz it was served to the Mughals and the other royal households.
Using Ghee instead of oil, garnishing it with edible silver and saffron and cutting the bread tukdas diagonally makes it more the Royal Toast.
Vardhan Shrivastava what is krish then?
@@blabhblaja ah.. To be honest I forgot how he got his powers. The movie was a sequal to "koi mil gya" an
E.T. esque movie where the Alien forms a bond with a specially abled person. And gives him powers. Krish is the son of said person and has super strength super speed etc etc, he can't fly though. Btdubs... Krish is short for his name Krishna.
@@VardhanShrivastava I know right! Didn't like Krishh at all. They could have worked on the costume and his powers and his story a bit more.
And even though I have nostalgia for Koi Mil Gaya and it had genuinely amazing songs, I cringe at the thought of Hritik Roshan acting like a caricature of a man will mental illness. Retrospectively, that was not a good portrayal.
This looks so good! My favorite thing in the world is various no-cook or super simple bread puddings. I'm chronically ill, so don't often have the energy to cook, but I love doing it, and when I really want something sweet and rich they're my go-to. Heck, I even found a mug recipe for one, that's rapidly becoming a family favorite and I can't make it single serve any more. I bet they'd love this so much! I'll have to try to make it over the holiday vacation for sure.
Let's have Priya more often in this channel! I like her :)
Keep diversifying this page. It’s cool to hear more and more cultures here and see all kinds of different food
I just adore you Priya! I think I'm a combo Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw with a tukra of Gryffindor.
Priya is absolutely adorable and hilarious! Can we get more Priya videos plz?
Her eating the whole elaichi wasn't even surprising, I might not like it, but my mum loves it.
Another thing to do is to fry the bread with ghee, soak it in chaashni or basically a very saturated sugar-water solution and then put something like, idk, milkmaid?? or something on top of it. Then chill it and enjoy!!
Loooove this! She's just so chill and personable
I love when Priya calls her Dad.
2:33. Shahi means royal
Great video! WOW I thought Wonder Bread went out of business, I haven't seen it in my area stores in years.
Love this host!! What are uncrustables?
First, this looks so good! Second We need more Priya! keep her videos coming she is great! Third, and most importantly, I'm so glad Priya is a fellow Ravenclaw!
Priya, you explain every step so well. As someone who watches many professional cooking videos, you shine bright like a diamond. Never been a fan of bread pudding but I must give this a try.
"I kind of like to push these pieces of Brad in just to make sure they're all getting thoroughly coated" the pun of it all...
Just the absolute cutest human being. Love her videos!
YAYYY! More Priya!
Yeah shes my favorite.
I generally keep the crust on, because it helps holding every piece of bread together after they have absorbed the cream/custard, making it easier to serve.
Priya just became my favorite with her hogwarts houses talk. we stan a true harry potter fan
im so glad priya made shahi tukrey, she's really bringing our best secret recipes to bonappetit!! my version of this requires shallow frying the bread, then dipping it in a sugar syrup infused with rosewater and kewra prior to topping it with the cardamom cream - a little excessive I know, but its truly the best way! I also like to add almonds and cashews to the topping, toasting the nuts as well to bring another layer of flavour.
Krish is not a rip off of superman... Common! Others... Yes! 😅
This is so true. Every Indian family has pet names for the relatives. You probably don't know your uncles, and aunts real name because for everyone they're pet name + uncle/aunt.
I literally just found out last month that my aunt's name is Rizvana and not Seema, like what!
mumford and sons white bread. i love you priya.
I'm adding Priya to my list of Test Kitchen ladies I'm in love with.
Omg when they asked her what Hogwarts house she was I immediately thought Ravenclaw before she even had to say it...
I enjoy the story time with Priya, tbh.
Reminds me of my family since I'm brown, raised in America.
"Mumford and Sons concert" - rotfl love it!
Also - yay! I speak a tukra of Hindi now. :>
As a native Hindi speaker, this comment is ADORABLE
@@_biomacromolecules7782 as a native hindi speaker, how would you transcribe her uncle's name and nickname? :)
@@msc-w1g would you please help me out with the time stamp :)
@@_biomacromolecules7782 yes! around 6:52
@@msc-w1g her uncle's name is Hemant, which has many meanings depending on the region, but a popular meaning is 'early winter' which is considered the most pleasant weather, it is also a name for Buddha.
Before i tell you about nicknames, keep in mind they are terms of endearment and have a warm feel to them, but the english translations just dont do them justice 😅
Gabbu means chubby, often used when a child is healthy and squishy (¿😂) I hope that helps :)
You should be on TV, I love the way you deliver and tell the things on cooking, great! Good blessed
The crust of the bread fried in ghee is better than the whites of the bread. I would not recommend cutting it. Its like delicious sweet and creamy croutons.
Any way, Priya owns my WHOLE heart.
