Chhena Poda is a traditional Indian dessert from the state of Odisha. It is made by mixing fresh cottage cheese (chhena) with sugar, cardamom powder, and semolina. The mixture is then baked until it turns golden brown, resulting in a caramelized crust and a soft, spongy interior. Chhena Poda has a rich, sweet flavor with a hint of cardamom, making it a delightful treat for any occasion.
