Sachlev Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Combine cornstarch and water in a small cup and stir well.
• 2. Add milk to a soup pan or dutch oven pot.
• 3. Stir in cornstarch mixture in milk before it gets warm.
• 4. Add in vanilla and sugar.
• 5. Must stir constantly until it comes to a boil.
• 6. Let boil for 2 minutes, meanwhile still stirring.
• 7. Serve in dessert bowls.
• 8. Top with cinnamon and coconut or just chopped pistachios.
• 9. It's traditionally eaten hot, but I like it cold too, once it cooled off and firmed up.

Steps:

• Heat the milk and vanilla extract in a pot on the stove. As milk heats, whisk in the corn starch and make sure there are no clumps.
• Add in sugar and orange flower water (mazaar).
• As the mixture gets hot, it will thicken immensely. This drink is meant to be very thick. Use the water to thin it out a bit, if necessary, but it should really have the consistency of light yoghurt.
• Once the misture is thick and hot, add the package of splenda or sweetner if necessary, stir and then pour it into one large or two small mugs.
• Divide the almonds, pishtachios, coconut, raisins and cinammon between the two mugs. Do not stir.
• You are supposed to stir the drink yourself once it is served.
• Enjoy!
