Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, coconut milk, and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves completely. Do not let it boil.
- In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a few tablespoons of water to create a slurry. This will help prevent lumps in your mixture.
- Once the milk mixture is warm, gradually whisk in the cornstarch slurry. Continue to cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the rose water and a pinch of salt. Mix well to combine all the flavors.
- Pour the mixture into individual serving cups or bowls. Allow it to cool slightly at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.
- Once the Malabi is set, garnish with chopped pistachios and fresh berries before serving.
Notes
For a floral twist, try adding a bit of orange blossom water along with the rose water. You can also substitute the garnishes based on seasonal fruits.
