Ingredients

3 pints Milk

Method

Pour milk in saucepan, bring almost to boil. As it starts to rise, remove from heat, add slightly warmed juice, stir once. Stand 5 minutes. If not curdled, reheat, add more juice. Pour into colander lined with muslin. Drain 30 minutes or press with weight till dry.

Turn onto marble slab, knead for 5 minutes, add semolina, knead again until smooth and the palm of hand becomes greasy. Form into 10 walnut sized pieces, mold around sugar cubes.

Heat water and sugar till dissolved, boil 5 minutes. Pour off 1/2 syrup. Place ros gulas (prepared balls) and bruised cardamon pods over very low heat uncovered until balls swell and become spongy, about 1 hour. Occasionally add a little more syrup. Cool till lukewarm, add rose water.

Serve warm.
