Berry Malai
An adaptation of berries and cream . Malai is Hindi word for cream or reduced milk . Not sure why it ' s called malai when the description says its baked yoghuty it should be ' Dahi '. The dish is light and well-balanced sweetness . Dark berries are fine in winter but strawberries not great pick for winter menu .
