- Hello, and welcome to our channel.
- In today's video, we are going to be trying
an Indian dessert called rassomalai.
- And it's basically made out of milk.
I mean, I've looked at the ingredients and it says 75% milk,
double cream, water, sugar, milk powder...
- Cardamom, pistachios and saffron.
- Yeah. It says soft, white, round patties
immersed in creamy milky syrup,
flavoured with cardamom, pistachios and saffron.
I dunno why, but the word "milky" reminds me of Ravi,
because when we sent him pasta and sauce,
he, he didn't really understand how to cook it,
and he kept saying,
- [Both] "It's very milky, milky, brother."
- [Woman] Yeah. (both laughing)
- So this one we can eat straight away, yeah?
- Yeah. - Is that right?
- I hope I didn't freeze it in the fridge.
- Oh yeah, it was set on high when it was in the fridge.
Right, this is what it looks like, guys.
- Oh.
- It looks like ice cream.
- It looks like melted ice cream,
doesn't it? - It does.
- It's really cold as well. (laughs)
- So how are we gonna open this?
Oh, there's bits of pistachio floating in it.
- Oh, I'm really excited to try it.
- [Woman] I'm worried it's gonna start to squirt all over.
- [Man] Yeah, it might pop,
- Oh. - and go all over us.
- [Woman] No, I'm gonna need something sharp.
- [Man] No, no, go and and do it. Just do it quickly.
- [Woman] Just do it. - [Man] Do it quickly, go on.
- [Woman] Oh my God! - [Man] Oh!
(yelps) Go, go, go!
- [Woman] I can't do it. - [Man] Just do it quickly.
- [Woman] I'm so scared it's-- - [Man] Want me do it?
Do you want me to do it?
(woman shrieks)
- [Man] Oh, see, it was fine. - [Woman] It's fine.
(gasps) Oh no, it's going. It's like, really, really milky.
- [Man] Really milky, yeah?
- [Woman] Honestly. - [Man] Oh, no.
Do we need scissors?
- [Woman] No. Oh, I'm getting it.
- [Man] Are we gonna break the rasmalai, though?
(woman gasps) - [Man] Oh, no! Milky, milky!
- [Woman] I think I'm gonna have to get a bowl.
- [Man] Okay. Get a bowl, then, that's cool.
You get a bowl and some scissors.
(woman laughs)
- [Man] And I'll just chill here for a little bit.
- [Woman] Sit for a few.
- (laughs) I'll just, um, keep people entertained.
- [Woman] That's a lot of liquid, isn't it?
And it doesn't have any instruction.
- [Man] It's like a milky, syrupy liquid, I think.
- [Woman] Yeah. Ooh.
- [Man] Oh, so you're gonna cut it
and then pour it into the bowl?
- [Woman] Yeah. - [Man] That's cool.
- [Woman] Want to save one of the kits or two.
(man laughs)
- [Woman] Yeah, we might need to... Oh?
Yeah, okay. Ooh!
- [Man] Oh, so this is what it looks like.
- [Woman] Oh. - [Man] Ha.
- [Woman] Go on, out you get.
- [Man] Oh, that's the patty. - [Woman] Oh! Interesting.
- [Man] Oh, that looks really good.
- [Woman] That looks like ice cream.
I was gonna just tuck in,
but I think I'll let you go first.
- You sure? - Yeah, yeah.
I'll be a gentleman for once. - Okay.
Oh my God. - Whoa.
Too milky. - So (indistinct).
It's like a bowl of cereal, but...
It smells... It smells like Rusk.
- Does it? - Yeah.
It smells like Rusk.
- Did they just get Farley's Rusks,
and just put 'em in milk?
- It looks like one actually, as well.
I reckon it's, like... no, no, I dunno.
- Interesting. - It's really cold.
- Is it?
- Mmm!
- Cheers.
(man laughs)
(both slurping)
- I think that's...
- Oh, what is that? (woman laughs)
- You don't like it.
- (smacking lips) That's really weird.
How does it taste?
- It tastes really strong, of...
Is this saffron or cardamom?
- Okay, it tastes...
Tastes like a mix between ice cream...
- Mm. It's really cold as well.
- And sand. (both laughing)
- You think? - Yeah.
- I think it's like a sponge cake, again. But..
I can't, sorry.
(groovy music)
- It's interesting.
- To be honest, if you've got, like,
vanilla ice cream, right, took away the vanilla,
and added cardamom...
Basically what it is, isn't it?
- That's what strong flavour it is, isn't it.
- It's got the flavor of cardamom,
and it does taste really similar to vanilla.
I think? (laughs)
- The fact-- - Too milky, brother. (laughs)
I do hope you're meant to eat it like this.
- So it is patties.
Does that mean...
- It just means it's in the shape of (indistinct).
- 45 wheat flour.
So it's bread, essentially, in milk. (laughs)
- Mm.
- Really unusual.
- It is.
- I've never had anything like it.
The more I eat it, the more I like it.
- The syrup's really nice, some of it. (slurps)
- Oh, beautiful. Mm. (woman laughs)
- Ted turned up the fridge to seven, so... it's pretty cold.
(man laughs)
- Right, let's have a go of this, then.
- Mm. It's a nice syrup, but it's very sweet,
and very strong of cardamom. - Oh, I like the little bits
of pistachio in there. - Hmm.
(both giggling)
Mmm.
- Anyway, that is definitely interesting,
and the more I taste it, the more I like it.
- It's not repulsive, is it?
- No. We'll save two for the kids.
- Maybe we could, um, see what they think of it.
- Yeah, definitely.
Some of it gets stuck in your teeth, doesn't it?
- Mhmm. It's honestly...
It's, it's a bready texture.
- Mmm.
It's like a Rusk.
- Yeah. - Like a soggy Rusk.
- Yeah.
But when they say "patty," it's like,
it's like a burger bun.
- Mm. - To us.
- Yeah, I mean...
Even the picture, it does show them like some kind of patty.
- It's definitely worth a try though, it's...
- I really love trying new things.
