Double ka meetha (also known as Shahi Tukra,[1][2] is an Indian bread pudding sweet made of fried bread slices soaked in hot milk with spices, including saffron and cardamom.[3] Double ka meetha is a dessert of Hyderabad.[4] It is popular in Hyderabadi cuisine, served at weddings and parties. Double ka meetha refers to the milk bread, called "double roti" in the local Indian dialects because it swells up to almost double its original size after baking.

The very sweet, ghee-rich fried bread pudding laced with almonds, which elsewhere is called shahi-tukda, is in Hyderabad termed double-ka-meeta, the name stemming from the double-rod (bread loaf) that is used to make it.
