Dimer Halua (Scrambled Egg Dessert?)

6 large eggs
0.5 cup evaporated milk
3 slices of bread, shredded (optional)
1 cup of sugar
1 teaspoon of rose water
3-4 green cardamoms
2 inch cinnamon. broken into pieces
0.5 cup ghee (clarified butter)
golden raisins to garnish (optional)

"Scrambled Egg Dessert" sounds horrible... but this this delicious :)

Mix all the ingredients (except raisin and rosewater). Use a beater to melt dissolve the sugar and so that the egg whites don't stay intact. Put in a non-stick pan in medium heat. Keep stirring constantly. Between 5-10mins, the mixture will start forming into a grit or couscous-like texture. Once the moisture has dried up, and the texture is obtained, add the rose water and the golden raisins.

My mother-in-law adds the bread, and it creates a different taste/texture. You can leave the bread out, but reduce the amount of sugar slightly if you leave it out.

  1. I'm so glad I found this! There aren't enough Bangladeshi food bloggers around, not ones as elaborate as you anyway.

    Dimer halua is the only traditional dessert I can cook, but it's so hard to get it right. I remember mom and my aunts cooking it so it'd smell like spices and the egg would be sort of sugary-syrupy. I just end up with sweet egg flavoured rubber!!
