Ras Malai

  1. Mix 1 1/2 cups of sugar with the Ricotta cheese and bake it in a 400F (200C) oven for about 75 minutes in a flat dish covered with aluminum foil.
  2. The cheese should have hardened and turned a pale brown.
  3. Thicken the half and half by simmering over low heat for a long time.
  4. This is best done in a microwave; if a microwave is not available, do it over low heat and stir frequently.
  5. Thicken until the volume drops to around half of the original volume.
  6. Add the remaining 1/2 cup sugar, cardamom pods, bay leaf, vanilla and rose water (and any other flavoring that you may want) to the Half and Half.
  7. Heat for a few minutes.
  8. After the cheese has been baked, cut it into 1 inch squares and add to the hot thickened half and half.
  9. Cool for a few hours in the fridge.
