Get ready, Gingis, because we're about to take the dairy holiday of Shavuot to a whole new level of excitement with the ultimate Israeli dessert sensation: MALABI! Hold onto your taste buds because they're in for a wild ride. Malabi, the Israeli answer to panna cotta, is a creamy milk custard that's about to get a flavor makeover of epic proportions. Imagine this: a luscious milk custard adorned with a tantalizing strawberry syrup, a hint of fragrant rose water, a sprinkle of shredded coconut, and a burst of roasted peanuts. But hey, we're not stopping there. Oh no! We're kicking it up a notch with some mind-blowing upgrades to those delectable toppings. Prepare to have your mind blown as we swap out the ordinary strawberry syrup for a vibrant concoction of fresh strawberries, sugar, and sumac. This glorious blend creates a thick, ruby-red syrup that will have your taste buds doing a happy dance. And let's talk about the shredded coconut, shall we? We're taking those humble shreds and toasting them to golden perfection, infusing them with a caramelized sweetness that will make you weak in the knees. But wait, Gingis, there's more! Instead of plain old peanuts, we're introducing the fabulousness of pistachios. Not only do they bring a more intriguing flavor to the table, but they also create a jaw-dropping contrast of colors that will make your Malabi a feast for the eyes as well as the taste buds. The result? Pure divinity. It's a delicate balance of flavors that will transport you to dessert paradise. Not too sweet, not too heavy—just perfectly perf! So don't keep your taste buds waiting, Gingis. Take a leap into the Malabi wonderland, knowing that you can whip it up in advance, surprising your guests with a dessert extravaganza or simply treating yourself to a quick and heavenly munchies session. Get ready for a dairy delight like no other!

Ingredients

For the Malabi

500 gr whole milk

250 gr heavy cream

80 gr sugar

35 gr corn starch

10 gr rose water

For the strawberry syrup

6 ½ strawberries

50 gr sugar

10 gr sumac

For assembling

Malabi

Strawberry syrup

Pistachios

Shredded coconut

Directions

Step 1

In a medium size pot, add the milk, heavy cream, sugar, corn starch and rose water.

500 gr whole milk

250 gr heavy cream

80 gr sugar

35 gr corn starch

10 gr rose water

Step 2

Whisk until there are no corn starch lumps anymore.

Step 3

Heat up the pot over medium heat, stirring constantly just until it start to thicken.

Step 4

Remove from the heat and immediately pour into serving cups. Leave about 1/2 inch space for the toppings. It would be easier to pour the mixture into the serving cups using a measuring cup (simply transfer the mix from the pot to a measuring cup to the serving bowl).

Step 5

Cover the serving cups with plastic wrap and place in the fridge to cool down for at least 3 hours (up to 3 days).

Step 6

Prepare the toppings- starting with the strawberry syrup. Cut the strawberries into small cubes and mix them with sugar and sumac. Set aside until you ready to serve. The sugar will breakdown the strawberries into a thick rough beautiful syrup.

6 ½ strawberries

50 gr sugar

10 gr sumac

Step 7

Grind pistachios in pulses using a food processor.

Step 8

Toast shredded coconut on a pan over medium heat until browning.

Step 9

Assemble the malabi- add two tablespoons of strawberry syrup on top of the Malabi, toasted shredded coconut, ground pistachios and two slices of fresh strawberries!
