- I don't play Holi but I like to soak in the festive mood by making something that is synonymous with Holi. Thandai is a mixture of nuts, seeds, and spices, and also a refreshing milk shake-like drink, made during the Holi festival. While mixing the thandai powder with milk is one of the more popular ways of having it, you could use it in a number of ways. In fact, you could use it to flavor any dessert of your choice. For instance, I am using the thandai mixture to add the flavor to this rice flour pudding, Malabi.
Malabi, also called Mahalabiais or Muhallebi a deliciously smooth and creamy dessert from the Middle East. It is very similar to Phirni yet has a subtle difference to it. In Phirni, rice grains will need to be air-dried after being soaked in water and ground to coarse texture, which is then mixed with milk. It is soft and creamy but still a firm rice pudding, whereas Malabi is a mix between a velvety custard and a rice pudding.
