In a bowl, add 1/2 cup cold milk.

Add 3 tablespoons custard powder to the milk and mix well until there are no lumps.

Set the custard mixture aside.

In a pan, add 1 liter full cream milk and heat on medium-high flame until it boils.

Once boiling, reduce the flame to low and stir, scraping the cream that forms on the sides back into the milk.

Add 1/2 cup sugar and mix until dissolved.

Add 1/2 teaspoon green cardamom powder and mix well.

Add the prepared custard mixture to the milk, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.

Cook on low flame for 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened, then remove from heat and let cool.

In another pan, add 1 cup water and 1/3 cup sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon green cardamom powder.

Add saffron strands and mix, cooking on medium flame until the sugar dissolves and the water boils.

Remove from heat and let cool.

In a bowl, take 1 cup soft mawa and add 2 tablespoons powdered sugar, mixing well.

Add chopped almonds and pistachios to the mawa and mix until combined.

Cut white bread slices into circles using a cutter.

Spread 1 tablespoon of the mawa mixture on one bread circle and cover with another circle, pressing the edges to seal.

Repeat with all bread slices until finished.

In a large dish, pour a little of the custard mixture to coat the bottom.

Arrange the filled bread circles in the dish.

Drizzle the prepared sugar syrup over each bread circle to soak them.

Pour the remaining custard mixture over the bread circles, ensuring they are well covered.

Garnish with chopped pistachios and almonds on top.

Refrigerate the dessert for 2 hours to chill before serving.
