how to make double ka meetha
  1. To make double ka meetha, place a bread slice on a clean, dry surface.
     
  2. Cut the bread slices into 4 equal pieces using a sharp knife. Keep aside.
  3. Heat the ghee or oil in a broad non-stick pan. Ghee has a rich and nutty flavor that enhances the flavor of the other ingredients in the dish, such as the bread, milk, and sugar. Ghee is a good choice for frying the bread because it has a high smoke point and does not burn easily.

Tarla Dalal    make sure your sugar syrup is not too thick.. and do not immerse the fried bread pieces in sugar syrup for long time.
