Balouza is one of the tastiest Syrian desserts that can be prepared quickly with just a few ingredients. Try it!

Ingredients:

First layer:‎

3 cups milk

4 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon rose water

3 tablespoons cornstarch

How to prepare the first layer:
Put 2 1/2 cups of the milk and the sugar into a saucepan over low heat.
Stir well until the sugar dissolves and the milk heats.
Mix the remaining 1/2 cup of milk with the cornstarch and whisk until the starch dissolves and the mixture is lump-free.
Stir the mixture well, then gradually pour it into the milk and sugar while stirring continuously until the mixture thickens and holds together.
Add the rose water, stir, remove from the heat, and pour into serving glasses — fill each glass only halfway. Let them cool slightly.

Second layer: ‎

Juice of 3 oranges — 1 1/2 cups

2 tablespoons cornstarch

3 tablespoons sugar

Put the ingredients in a saucepan over low heat and cook until they come together, then pour them over the muhallabia mixture (the first layer).
Refrigerate for about 3 hours, then invert the glass onto a serving plate to reveal the beautiful balouza shape and garnish as desired.
