Aish Al Saraya has been on the top most list of  my favorite cooled desserts. Easy to prepare. And such a succulent taste of natural rose water elevates the entire dessert. Leaving a lingering feel on your senses.In literal term , Aish Al Saraya translates as bread of the palace. And indeed this combination of bread & flavored cream transform this pudding and is a huge favorite at parties.

I have divided the recipe into three parts: preparing the syrup, cream & pan base for an easy understanding of the entire procedure. In about half an hour the prep of this dish is done.  And you just have to leave it for few hours on fridge for complete setting. And you are ready to go.
