Matar Paneer

Knead paneer well into a pliable paste or until your hands become oily.Knead using the heel of your hands. Then add a tsp of rava, cardamom powder,sugar and knead lightly. (picture below shows paneer which is not kneaded) Then divide the paneer into equal pieces and make smooth balls. Ensure that there are no cracks. Then flatten it in the shape of a disc and place it on a maida dusted plate.(if you are going to stop with preparing rasgulla, make balls and not discs) Heat sugar and water over low flame. Once the sugar dissolves, increase the flame. When the sugar water comes to rolling boil, reduce the temperature to medium and gently drop the prepared discs. See to it that the paneer discs do not touch each other. Close it and let it cook for 15 minutes. Check in between. After 15-20 minutes, the rasgullas would have doubled its original size (see picture below). Switch off the flame and let it cool. This is rasgulla. Let the rasgulla remain soaked in sugar syrup for 1-2 hours. We will prepare the saffron flavored milk for rasmalai.

Amrin Maria Khan November 16, 2013 at 7:15 AM Hey! Great recipe! The creamy malai came out great but the rasgullas broke after a while when I put them in the sugar syrup. What must have gone wrong? Reply

Padhu Sankar

November 18, 2013 at 1:13 AM

Amrin - Either the water has not been properly squeezed out of the paneer or you might not have kneaded the paneer well. Kneading well with the heel of your hands is a very important step. Reply

Rasmalai Recipe-How to make Rasmalai-Diwali Sweets | Padhuskitchen Thanks for a simple yet beautiful recipe.Yesterday I made rasgulla disks exactly as you directed. After putting in to boiling sugar syrup, they swelled also as you said. But the sad part is that I found them hard after removing from the syrup. What might have gone wrong? Can I add a pinch of soda/ baking powder at the time of kneading the dough? Pl guide as wish to make on 25th Dec. Reply

Kirantendle - Kneading the paneer to a very smooth consistency with the heel of your hands is a key step to get spongy rasmalai. It will take a long time. It is advisable to avoid using food processor. Paneer should not be too dry (over dry), then also the rasmalai will turn hard.At the same time there should not be water also in the paneer. Maintaining the correct moisture level in the paneer is also an important step. Make rasmalai on the same day, you prepare paneer. Store bough paneer done not work well for making rasmalai, you have to prepare paneer at home with full fat milk. Reply

kirantendle December 20, 2013 at 9:07 PM Thanks padhu, I think my paneer was extra dry as I squeezed it very hard to remove all the whey. I will try again & let you know the results. Love, Kiran Tendle. Reply Replies kirantendle December 30, 2013 at 9:24 AM Hey Padhu, I followed your advice. Also, after removing the disks from boiling syrup, I immersed them in really hot (boiling) water for one hour ( I read this trick in somebody else's recipe). The result was fantastic - as soft as sponge. Thanks once again. Love, Kiran tendle, Mumbai. Reply

fathima rizla January 14, 2014 at 1:39 PM Hi, what is the reson for hard rasmalai? I have cookedit for twenty mins Reply Replies Padhu Sankar

January 18, 2014 at 2:04 AM

Once the paneer disks are cooked, you can remove it from the boiling syrup and drop it in hot water for 15 minutes. Remove it and then soak it in rabri (flavored milk). It might help. Also kneading the paneer well is very important to get soft rasmalai. Reply

CH.D.S.N PI February 9, 2014 at 2:27 AM very easy to prepare paneer Reply

mimz March 27, 2014 at 9:07 PM Hi Padhu, Quick question- Can i double the quantity of ingredients listed if I was going to make more ( say 12).. In particular, the lemon juice, if I wanted to make paneer out of 2 litres of milk? Thanks :) Reply

Yes, you can. But if you are trying for the first time, I recommend that you try in less quantity. Reply

Geetha Kannan May 2, 2014 at 6:18 AM padhu my rasgullas have turned out to be hard and it has been 1 and a half hours since i've cooked it, can i put it in hot water now and then put it in the flavoured milk? Reply Replies Padhu Sankar

May 2, 2014 at 7:41 AM

Yes, you can do that .My rasgullas, in spite of not soaking them in water turned out soft and spongy. Kneading the paneer with the heels of your hands is very important to get soft rasgullas. Reply

Sri Vidya May 4, 2014 at 7:06 PM Thank you for sharing your recipe. I made a small change to your recipe and it still came very tasty. I made everything with 2% milk instead of whole milk. Reply
