Method

1. Combine the milk with the water and mix well until fully dissolved.
2. In a pot, place the starch, vanilla, sugar, coconut, and a pinch of sesame; pour the milk over them and stir well until blended.
3. Place the pot over the heat, stirring constantly to prevent the starch from clumping or burning; after it boils, lower the heat and continue stirring until the sahlab thickens and becomes firm.
4. Stir in the rose water and cinnamon, then turn off the heat and pour the sahlab into cups or serving bowls and add the garnish.
5. Note: You can adjust the ingredient amounts according to the quantity you want.
