[Cz-L] Add recipe

Dear Czernowitzers and all Bukoviners,

I would like to add my Malai recipe to the cookbook.

Kudos to Michele Troupe for creating the gorgeous cookbook.

MALAI:

Filling:
¾-pound (375g)/1½ Cups Ricotta (low fat) or Old-Fashioned Dry Cottage
Cheese
1 Egg
4-5 Tbsp. (25 ml) Granulated White Sugar

Batter:
1 Cup (250 ml) All-purpose Flour
1 Cup (250 ml) Cornmeal
½ Cup (100 ml) Granulated Sugar
2 Tsp. (10 ml) Baking Powder
½ Tsp. Baking Soda
¼ Tsp. Salt (optional)
1 Egg
3 Tbsp. (50 ml) Vegetable Oil
6 Tbsp. (50 ml) Light Yogurt or Sour Cream
1 Cup (250 ml) Milk

FILLING: In bowl, combine cottage cheese with egg, sugar and salt until well
blended, or place in food processor until combined.
BATTER: In mixing bowl, stir together flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder,
baking soda and salt; make a well in centre. In another bowl, whisk egg
with oil and sour cream: stir in milk. Stir into flour mixture to make a
smooth batter.
Pour half the batter into a greased 7" x 11" (2-L) baking dish. Spread
cheese mixture evenly over batter, then top with remaining batter.
Bake in oven preheated to 350 degrees F (180C) for 40 minutes (test for
doneness).
Serve hot with sour cream or thick yogurt.

NOTE: If a larger pan is used (for a crowd), add several minutes to baking
time (not too much, and test), being careful not to dry it out.
