Rasmalai

The previous Thursday I bought a lot of food from Passage Thru India restaurant in Damansara via grab delivery. One of the food items is a popular dessert named Rasmalai. MYR 9.90 for one portion of 3.

Rasmalai is made from milk. For more information, please refer to this recipe on how to make a delicious rasmalai. Recipe link in full text below:

I haven't eaten it before so I am curious to try it. There are 3 flattened balls made of curdled milk inside the thickened liquid milk. The yellow colour is supposed to be from saffron.

Sweet and milky. I ate one on Thursday and kept the remaining two in the fridge. If you like condensed milk, you will like this dessert.

0743 breakfast to clear the remaining zhar yuk muk Yee rice bought on Monday which is 5 days ago. Added choy sum aka sawi.

0820 my portion of breakfast.

1138 whenever we passed by friendship cafe on a Saturday, I must buy this dai gao mein from the nearby food truck. MYR 1.50 nett. Ate it in the car on the way home cos I am not the one driving.

1154 not my lunch of roast chicken and siew yoke rice from friendship cafe. Can't remember how much it costs. Should be around MYR 7 to 8. Also bought 3 siew baos at MYR 5 nett and one slice of steamed brown sugar cake at MYR 1.50 nett.

1312 my lunch. I had to clear this remaining portion of chicken briyani rice bought from Passage Thru India restaurant on Thursday, 2 days ago.

1318. I ate it directly from the fridge because I can't be bothered to heat it up since I am ok to eat it at room temperature after it has been out from the fridge for 30 mins. Flavourful, a tiny bit spicy only so I am ok. No MSG since I was not thirsty after that. Can you see the two pieces of chicken in the photo? This packet of briyani rice has about 5 to 6 pieces of chicken in it and the whole packet weighed about 600g so we ate it for three meals including this one before finishing it.

1509 the remaining two milk curdle, Rasmalai. 

1511 ate both of them and put the remaining thickened milk saffron liquid back into the fridge to be used as bread spread for the next few days. Took a nap after this lunch and dessert.

1817 dinner for two pax. 3jc from friendship cafe MYR 7 nett.

1837 ate the chicken pie MYR 2.80 Nett bought from the stall outside Sepetang coffee shop in taman Desa on Sunday, 6 days ago.

1837 - blurred photo of the fillings - small cubes of chicken meat and carrots. I prefer beef fillings. Can't put my finger on the taste. Let me buy one for my friend tomorrow and she will be able to describe the taste of this filling and I will update this section.

After that I ate the one and only remaining piece of fried items I bought on Sunday, 6 days ago which is a piece of deep fried tapioca. I feel good to be able to clear 3 food items from my fridge on this day. No more eating after 1900.

Updates on Sunday 15 Nov 2020 1820:

My friend description of the chicken pie taste:

"got oyster sauce, usual 5 spice powder, pepper,  bit bit curry on the miniest chic nanocubes, soy sauce  potatoes,  carrot,  onion.

Very thin pastry with shortening that leaves an oil waxy taste in mouth.

 First impression is siewbao with a much, much, much, lighter taste,  not that saucy.  Overall ok, can mask as healthier siew bao."
