Step 1

Preheat oven to 200 C. Arrange the croissant pieces on a baking sheet, and bake for about 10 minutes or so, until they’re slightly crispy.

Step 2

While the croissants are crisping up, add milk, heavy cream, sugar, and cardamom powder to a saucepan. Bring to a boil, and remove from heat.

Step 3

Place the croissant pieces in an ovenproof dish and then pour over the hot milk mixture.

Step 4

Now spread the whipped cream all over the surface of the om ali, and turn on the broiler of the oven.

Step 5

Place the cast iron skillet in the oven and broil for 2-3 minutes or so, until the top is golden brown.

Step 6

Remove from oven and top with slivered pistachios or your favorite nuts and raisins.

Step 7

Let rest for a few minutes, and then serve. Om Ali tastes best when warm, but its good to eat cold as well.
