HOW TO MAKE OM ALI - (ام علي), Egypt's National Dessert! (Middle-east bread pudding)
⬇️ CHECK THE FULL RECIPE BELOW ⬇️
This ultimate authentic homemade version of Om Ali respects the tradition using good quality ingredients.
Making your own Rokak will definitely boost these authentic flavours and deliver a surprisingly delicate texture to this dessert followed by the nutty notes of the dry fruit and nuts which adds multiple levels of crunchiness.
So Indulge yourself and enjoy this exquisite dessert with its light notes of sweet milk.
“Om Ali is always present on the Egyptian table, offered at most restaurants, even those serving non-Egyptian cuisine“
Centuries on, Om Ali is still going strong; it’s a remarkably resilient pudding. While other desserts in Egypt have been popularly recreated in so many different ways, Om Ali seems untouched,
This is the Om Ali episode from our Tiramisù and Om Ali mini-series.
This series presents two dishes from Italy and Egypt that share the soaking method but very different from each other in cooking steps and flavours.
They are both engraved in our cultures for their distinctive taste and richness.
Please consider becoming a Patron of this channel. Both of us script, film and cook everything ourselves and this very expensive hobby will need a lot of your support!

How to make Tiramisú at home: 7/8 Servings
Rokak Bread Mix
500g all purpose flour (65g each 11 pcs)
230g Water
½ tsp salt
Knead the dough for 10 minutes then leave covered for 1 hour.
Cut the dough into 10 or 11 equal pieces then flatten each one as thin as possible and put it on the hot baking tray.
Bake the bread on the maximum heat of your oven in the lowest shelf in a preheated oven for 30 seconds to 1 minute or until it starts to get crunchy but not toasted.
Toasting The Bread
50g of melted butter
3 slices of Rokak
After cooking the bread, cut it in little pieces in a baking bowl and season it with melted butter. Toast it for 10 minutes at 200 C in the oven just to give it an extra colour and crunch and a nuttier flavour.
Milky Mixture
1L Whole Milk
150g Double Cream or Extra Thick Cream
400g Condensed Milk
Mix all ingredients together in a saucepan and put it on medium heat and keep stirring until it boils.
I usually leave some mixture aside cause i like it runny so I top it up during eating.
The day after You can also use plain milk to warm it up.
Building Om Ali (7 / 8 Servings )
20g Walnuts
20g Pistachios
20g Hazelnut
40g Raisins
Pour the milk mixture onto the toasted pieces of bread in the bowl right from the oven then add some crushed nuts of your choice and bake in a preheated oven on 200 degrees celsius for about 15 minutes or until the Om Ali caramelises from the top and gets a lovely golden colour.
The more you keep it in the oven the more set and liquids will absorb.
So it really depends how you prefer it.
Tips
The Bread has to be very thin or will be very gummy
Break the bread in small pieces
You can always add more milk to regenerate it the day after

MashaAllah dessert was so delicious .
I had this dessert at a hotel I was staying in Doha, one of the staff was showing me the dessert table and was very passionate about this particular one, as it was very traditional and comforting, he even told me the historic background and meaning behind the name of the dessert… I was worried when I decided to try it out, because I feared I wouldn’t like it, as Im a picky eater, unfortunately… but it is honestly one of the best things I tasted in my life! it was so good and I understood why the staff member was so passionate about this dish. It marked my stay in Doha and it’s why I ended up in this video, because now I know how it’s made and I can make it 🥰 thank you so much for such a great video

Some people make it with coconut yes, as I said in the video the choice of nuts is yours but it definitely has no cardamom or cinnamon, but again if you like to add them go ahead it will still taste delicious but not very Egyptian 😊 I hope you enjoyed your stay in Egypt 🙏🏻

For those who can't find the bread and don't feel like baking, you can also make it with store puff pastry sheets, I'd even argue it's more delicious because it's thinner.

Thanks Yuzan for your help and comment, I mentioned in the video that people can always use croissants which is puff pastry but without the hassle of baking it 😊, I’m not sure if you tried it with rokak or not, but if not I would suggest you do, with rokak Is another level as you get the bite of the bread with you never get with puff pastry ❤️

@@culturewhisk6019 I've never tried it with rokak actually, I'll try to make it one day. My mother had always made it with puff pastry, the result is different from croissants because we bake the puff pastry to be thin and crispy (rokak like).

Puff pastry is the same dough that’s shaped to make croissants, it’s just instead of getting the dough bake it then cut it in small pieces you can just get some croissants and again cut it and continue with the recipe Please do try it with rokak it’s pretty simple and straight forward recipe and the outcome is outstanding, thank you so much for your time and feedback 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️
