if there is one dessert that is loved by all, it is arguably Rasmalai. The soft, spongy disc-shaped chhena balls soaked in saffron-infused milk win almost every heart. And, surprisingly it is quite easy to make at home
STEP 1.To prepare malai, boil milk and add vinegar. It will start to curdle and split. Using a muslin cloth, strain the milk and add pressure to squeeze out the whey. Left in the muslin cloth is malai. 2. Knead the malai until smooth and add cardamom powder, mould into small disc-shaped balls.
STEP 2.• Make the sugar syrup by adding 150 ml water to the sugar and bring to a boil. Add a few drops of milk to the sugar syrup to clarify it. Add a pinch of all-purpose flour to make the syrup frothy.
STEP 3.• Once it comes to a boil, add the disc-shaped balls and cook for 10 mins.
STEP 4.• To prepare the ras, boil 500 ml of full-fat milk and reduce it to 300 ml. Add sugar, cardamom powder and saffron to it.
STEP 5.• Now, squeeze the malai to remove excess sugar syrup and add them to the ‘ras’.
