Shahi_tukray, literally means royal pieces,shahi means Royal in Persian, and tukray is a Hindi_urdu word meaning is piece,bite and scrap.
Here am going to share to some interesting history of shahi tukray
There are many who claim that shahi tukray evolved from "Um Ali" and ancient Egyptian bread pudding. Once a sultan with a group of hunters was hunting Along the river "Nile" they stopped nearby village for some food . The villagers called upon their local cook Um Ali/ later on it's called shahi tukray.. to cook up meal for the hungry guests.The chef mixed stale wheat bread,nuts,milk and sugar .
So it is popularly believed that Shahi_Tukray was a favorite of Mughal emperors to break fast with in the month of "Ramadan" from that time practice continues even today making it a very desirable "Dish" at "Iftar" and famous meetha served at the festive occasions of Eid-ul- Fitr and Eid-ul-Azha.
