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.

5 - 8 strawberries

50 gr sugar

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!
