Cut the corners of bread slices and then cut them diagonally. Discard the corners.
Heat ghee in a shallow pan over medium heat. When the ghee is hot, add a few slices of bread and deep fry from both sides until golden brown. I like to use a tong to hold the bread slices while frying.
Fry all the bread in the same manner. Transfer the fried bread slices to a plate and set them aside.
Heat milk in a heavy-bottom non-stick pan over medium heat.
When it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to medium. Add saffron strands and mix well.
Cook the rabdi until it is reduced to half (approximately 20-25 minutes), stirring frequently. Once the milk is reduced to half, add sugar and cook for another 10-12 minutes until the rabdi is thickened to a custard-like consistency.
Add rose syrup and mix well. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.
Heat water, sugar, and green cardamoms in a pan over medium heat.
Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring a few times in between. Remove the pan from the heat.
Dip fried bread slices in warm sugar syrup for 10-20 seconds. (or more if you like a softer version)
Keep them on the serving plate. Top with 2-3 tablespoon of rabdi. Garnish with almonds and pistachios slivers, and dried rose petals, and serve immediately.
