Ingredients
- 1 cup chena (homemade paneer)
- 3 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp semolina
- 1 tbsp wheat flour
- 1 dash of baking powder
- Ghee (clarified butter) for frying
- 1 Liter Milk
- 1 cup sugar (for milk syrup)
- 1/2 tsp cardamom powder
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the chena, 3 tbsp sugar, semolina, wheat flour, and baking powder. Mash the ingredients together until well combined.
- Knead the mixture using the lower palm of your hand for about 7-8 minutes until it forms a smooth dough. Divide the dough into equal-sized balls and shape each ball into a flat disc by gently pressing it between your palms.
- Heat ghee in a kadai (deep frying pan) over medium-low heat. Fry the chena discs until they turn golden brown and crispy on both sides. Remove the fried discs from the ghee and set them aside.
- In a separate saucepan, heat the milk over low heat until it reduces to half its original quantity. Add the 1 cup of sugar and cardamom powder to the reduced milk. Stir well and let it cook for an additional 5 minutes.
- Add the fried chena discs to the milk syrup and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse.
- Turn off the heat and let the Rasabali cool for a while. Serve it warm or chilled as per your preference.
