Sahlab
سحلب
Serve it hot or warm with a plain croissant.
Sahlab is a delicious, warm winter drink that is sprinkled with cinnamon and served with a plain croissant. I used to have it long ago at our family business in Tripoli, Cafe Cappuccino; now, I serve it at home for breakfast because my daughter loves it.
Procedure
- Pour 1/2 cup milk in the saucepan, add cornstarch and sugar and stir well to dissolve. Add remaining milk, place over medium-high heat and bring to boil while stirring.
- Reduce heat to medium and continue to stir for several more minutes, then turn off heat and pour the mixture into 2 cups. Sprinkle the top with cinnamon and serve.
