今天經過見到舖頭已改名, 至於還有沒有印度甜品供應就不得而知...
以下是咖喱烤餅叔叔餐廳Uncle's Curry & Kebab的食後評:
做咗人咁多年, 食過嘅印度甜品款式就真係五隻手指都數得晒, 暫時到而家最喜愛的仍然都是Shahi Gulab Jamun 蜜汁圆球
無意中發現深水埗警署對面開咗間門面光亮, 天花板頂着幾盞塑膠製的『水晶燈』, 感覺cosy的回教咖喱餐館【因為Menu寫住Halal Food, 所以我知道是回教咖喱店(無豬肉食嫁)】。
睇睇menu發現有三款印度甜品, 包括Kulfi, Kesari Rasmalai及Shahi Gulab Jamun

Kulfi |
<原汁鮮奶雪糕>$25...有少少鹹鹹地嘅味道, 粉紅色應該是玫瑰糖漿, 非常creamy, 奶味及豆蔻味道超级濃, 此雪糕質地比較硬, 與平時食開的雪糕質感不同, 應該是没有把空氣翻滾打入雪糕內。

Kesari Rasmalai |
<果仁奶芝士> $35...簡單來說是用煉奶來浸透淡味芝士, 芝士有很多洞洞, 好像海绵宝宝一樣, 口感嚡嚡的, 並吸收全部煉奶來擴充及增甜; 通常這種芝士都是店家自製, 聽落好似好簡單: 煮奶、落檸汁(檸檬汁導致牛奶蛋白凝聚和形成類似豆腐的沉澱)、隔渣、沖水、成型。
Ingredients:
6 cups water + 2 cups milk powder, for malai
2tbs lemon juice
4 cups water + 1 1/2 cup milk powder, for ras
6 cups water + 1 cup sugar, for syrup
1/8 cup ground almonds
1/8 cup toasted coconut
1/2 tsp cardamom powder
A few saffron strands/ kesar
Pistachios & Cashews
Method:
-
Start by preparing the malai. For this, dissolve 2 cups milk powder in 6 cups water. You can use fresh milk if available.
-
Gradually bring milk to a boil, stirring occasionally, over moderate heat. This will take around 10 minutes.
-
Add lemon juice slowly to boiling milk. Stir slowly till you see milk solids separating. Switch off heat at this point.
- Allow to cool for a few minutes. Lemon juice causes milk proteins to coagulate and form a curd-like precipitate. [Like in those high school chemistry experiments!]
- Take a soft cotton cloth or muslin cloth and use it to line a small bowl. Dump lemon-milk mixture into cloth.
- Hold the cloth above the bowl and allow whey water to filter out. Now extract as much water as you can by pressing the cloth with both hands.
- Wash it under the tap a couple of times to remove residual lemon flavour and squeeze out water again.
- You will end up with a soft ball of cheesy material – homemade paneer - something like dry cottage cheese.
- You now have a fairly small ball of paneer. If you want more, simply prepare a second batch or double the recipe.
- Transfer the paneer to another clean cloth and tie it up. Hang the paneer ball on a clothesline [where humans and animals cnt get at it]and forget about it for a while.
- After 1/2 – 1 hour take the paneer ball down from where it was hanging. It should be now free from excess moisture.
- Remove paneer from cloth and knead it to make it smooth. You can fastened this step by using a food processor.
- Now divide into small balls. I got only 12 malai balls.
- Roll each ball between your palms and flatten slightly.
- Prepare the sugar syrup. For this, take sugar and water in the ratio of 1:6. Bring to boil in an open pressure cooker.
- Carefully drop malai balls in boiling syrup.
- Make sure they have enough space to expand as they will double in size. I cooked them in 2 batches.
- Close pressure cooker and cook for about 10 minutes. My SEB was being used for smthing else so I had to boil them in a saucepan for some 30 minutes.
- Do not worry about the malai balls breaking up in the boiling syrup. If you shaped them well, they will not!
- Leave the balls to cool and soften in the sugar syrup while you prepare the ras/ milk sauce.
- Take 4 cups water and 1 1/2 cups milk powder in a large saucepan. Bring to the boil with occasional stirring.
- Add almonds, coconut, cardamom and saffron strands.
- Add 2 tsp of sugar syrup of the malai balls to boiling milk.
- Boil over low heat till the milk reduces to about 2 cups.
- Remove malai balls from syrup and dunk them into lukewarm water. Press lightly to remove excess water.
- Drop malai balls into boiling milk and boil for another 5 min.
- Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.
- Serve in individual cups and garnish with pistachios & cashews and saffron strands.
