Here is the recipe
Ingredients:
- Milk: 3 litres (2 ltr for making paneer and 1 ltr for making rasa / milk syrup)
- Maida (plain flour): 1 tsp
- Vinegar: 3 tbsp
- Water: 5 cups
- Sugar: 16 tbsp (8 for sugar syrup and 8 for rasa / milk syrup)
- Saffron: 3-4 strands
- Pista: 10 finely chopped
- Cardamon, crushed: 2 -3
- Boil 2 litres of milk and let it cool thoroughly and refrigerate the milk for 12 hours. Remove the thick layer of skin formed over the milk the next day (after 12 hours).
- Boil the milk, when the milk starts to boil, add vinegar. The milk will curdle and paneer will start floating on top and the whey water will stay on the bottom of the vessel. Place a muslin / cotton cloth over a bowl, filter the paneer.
- Pour 2 cups of water (to remove the sourness of vinegar), tie it well and let it hang for one hour until the paneer is completely drained of whey water.
- Remove the paneer from the muslin, knead well for 5-10 minutes. Add maida to the paneer and make small balls.
- In a pressure cooker, add 3 cups of water and sugar, bring it boil, add the paneer balls one by one and close the lid, simmer and let it cook for 15 minutes (until the balls become double in size). Press the paneer balls gently to drain the excess sugar syrup.
- Prepare the thick and creamy milk syrup by boiling the milk and reducing to half of the original quantity. Add sugar, saffron strands and crushed cardamom to the milk and mix thoroughly.
- Slowly release the paneer balls to the milk syrup. Pour the rasmalai in a serving bowl, cool and refrigerate. Garnish with pistas and serve chilled.
