Sahlep

Sahlep Ingredients

4 cups milk
1 cup sugar
1 Teaspoon sahlep powder

Preparation

Mix sugar and sahlep powder in a pan.
Add the cold milk stirring constantly.

Heat the mixture until it boils again stirring constantly.
Let it boil for 2-3 minutes and remove from heat.
Serve it warm and garnished with cinnamon.

Tips:
The thicker the sahlep is, the better. Sometimes addition of a little bit of starch might help to get the desired consistency. It is a remedy for sore throats and colds, therefore it's mainly consumed in the winter months.
