RASGULLA

Hey all ! Here I am today with popular 
Indian sweet recipe.. "Rasgulla" :-) It is very easy 
to prepare at home with basic ingredients from 
our pantry.. This is my first attempt trying 
rasgulla at home & came out good :-) 
RASGULLA RECIPE:
Recipe cuisine: Indian / Recipe category: Dessert
Prep time: 45 mins / cook time: 30 mins
INGREDIENTS:
Milk : 1/2 litre
Lemon juice : 1/2 tblsp
Sugar : 1 Cup
Water : 1 & 1/2 cups
Elaichi / cardamom powder : 1 pinch
Corn Starch : 1 tblsp
 Sliced Almonds : For garnish (optional)
METHOD:
Boil milk as per normal & lower the flame.
Add lemon juice to the milk & stir it in low flame.
Once the water get separated, turn off the flame.


Using a strainer & cloth, strain the mixture.
Now squeeze the cloth gently to remove excess
water.Hang it for 30 mins. Squeeze in between to remove
excess water. 
After 30 mins, take out the paneer & it might be bit powdery.
Add a tblsp of corn starch & knead it to a smooth dough.

Knead very gently for 10 mins. Then make even round balls.
Meanwhile, boil the sugar & water in low flame till the sugar dissolves
completely. 

Then add a pinch of elaichi powder & mix well.
Now add the paneer balls to the the sugar syrup.
Pressure cook it in medium flame till you get one whistle.
Then keep it in low flame for 5 mins & switch off the flame.
Let the pressure gets released & then open the lid.
The rasgullas would have doubled in size.
Add sliced almonds & serve it hot or cold.
Enjoy mouth watering rasgullas :-)
NOTES:
* I used low fat milk, full cream milk can be used.
* Instead of lemon juice, curd or vinegar can be used.
* If the sugar syrup is too watery, then add more sugar.
* One sting /two sting consistency is not required for sugar syrup.
