Om Ali is a famous Egyptian dessert made of puff pastry/crossiont/bread, milk, cream, assorted nuts and coconut. It is actually Egyptian version of bread pudding. It is really delightful dessert with a creamy and rich texture. I made a little variation to my recipe where I used good quality cornflakes along with toasted bread. The outcome was excellent.
