Time 1h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 quart milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 ounces yogurt
1 teaspoon flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 quart water
1 lb sugar
1 teaspoon rose water

Steps:

  • Bring milk to boil and add salt. Remove from heat and add yogurt into it. Stir gently until all the milk curdles. Strain the curdled milk in a thin muslin cloth. Squeeze gently until all the liquid is gone. You now have paneer.
  • Put the paneer in a large bowl and knead with the palms of your hand until it becomes smooth and soft.
  • Add the flour and bicarbonate of soda and knead a few more minutes. Roll and shape into small balls, the size of a ping-pong ball.
  • Dissolve the sugar in the water over gentle heat. Set aside half the syrup.
  • Bring the other half to boil and gently slip in the balls of paneer. Simmer for 10 minutes and then raise the heat, adding a little water to thin the syrup if necessary. The rasgullas are done when the float to the surface.
  • Drain and put them in the syrup that was set aside.
  • Sprinkle with rose water.
  • Serve cold.

The rasgullas were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good.

The rasgullas were delicious, but they were a bit too time-consuming to make. I'll probably only make them for special occasions.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my rasgullas didn't turn out as soft as I had hoped. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These rasgullas were so easy to make! I was worried they would be too complicated, but they really weren't.

I had a hard time finding paneer, so I used ricotta cheese instead. The rasgullas still turned out great, but they were a bit denser than I would have liked.

Rasgullas turned out soft and spongy, just like the ones I had in India. The sugar syrup was perfectly balanced, not too sweet and not too bland.
