How do I pass multiline HTML as parameter

I need to pass HTML as Parameter to a Html Helper Method (e.g: ClientTemplate in Telerik's Kendo UI MVC Wrapper).

Basicly I try to pass this:

<ul class="list-unstyled">
    <li>Foo</li>
    <li>Bar</li>
    <li>Baz</li>
</ul>

I tried this:

.Template(@<text>
    <ul class="list-unstyled">
        <li>Foo</li>
        <li>Bar</li>
        <li>Baz</li>
    </ul>
</text>.ToString()))

I get this error

CS1660 Cannot convert lambda expression to type 'string' because it is not a delegate type

I know it is possible with "...<li>Foo</li><li>Bar</li>..." but I am wondering if there is a better method like razors <text>

Thanks to Ashish Emmanuel's comment, I have this solution:

Helper Method

public static string RazorTemplateHelper(Func<object, HelperResult> template)
{
    return template.Invoke(null).ToString();
}

Razor

.Template(RazorTemplateHelper(@<text>
    <ul class="list-unstyled">
        <li>Foo</li>
        <li>Bar</li>
        <li>Baz</li>
    </ul>
</text>))
