02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Step 1

In a bowl, combine the coconut, pistachios, almonds, and cashews. Pour in the condensed milk and mix everything well until it’s all nicely combined.

02

Step 2

Take a slice of bread and gently flatten it with a rolling pin. Spoon some of the nut mixture onto one side, then brush a little water on the other side to help seal it. Roll it up tightly and set aside.

Step 3

Heat some clarified butter in a pan over medium heat. Fry the rolls until they’re golden brown and crispy on all sides.

Step 4

In a saucepan, pour in the milk and bring it to a gentle boil. Add the sugar and cardamom powder, stirring well. Let it simmer until the milk reduces by half and thickens slightly.

Good to know.

Cook's tip

- Make sure your ingredients, especially butter and cream, are at room temperature for easier mixing.
- Let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free place to help it become light and airy.
- Avoid overbaking; the rolls should be golden but still soft to keep their tender texture.

Why you’ll love it

These rolls are soft, fluffy, and rich with a creamy filling that feels like a special treat. Their slightly sweet dough pairs perfectly with the smooth cream inside, making them a delightful snack or breakfast option. They are simple to make but taste like they came from a bakery.

Serving ideas

Serve warm with a dusting of powdered sugar or a light glaze for extra sweetness. These rolls pair wonderfully with a cup of tea or coffee. You can also enjoy them with fresh fruit or a dollop of jam on the side.

Storage & leftovers

Store the rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. For longer storage, freeze them wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and foil. To enjoy later, thaw at room temperature and warm slightly before serving.
