Ingredients
2 tablespoons Glutinous rice flour
2 cups Whole milk
4 teaspoons Sugar
¼ teaspoon Rosewater
Ground cinnamon, for garnish
2 teaspoons Finely chopped pistachios, for garnish
Directions
In a small bowl, whisk together the rice flour and 4 tablespoons of milk until smooth and lump-free.
Pour the remaining milk into a saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Slowly pour the rice flour mixture into the simmering milk while stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
Continue stirring and simmer for 2–3 minutes until the mixture becomes thick and creamy.
Remove from heat and stir in the sugar and rosewater until fully dissolved.
Pour the salep into serving cups and garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon and chopped pistachios. Serve hot.
