Roshogolla

Hom bhaat khaata hai, maachh khaata hai, chai khaata hai, jol bhi khaata hai...tumko koi apotti hai?
Aaj hom tumhe botayega Roshogolla baanaane ka torikaa?


Ingredients:

  •  Milk                       – 1 litre
  •  Lemon juice           – 2 tea spoons
  •  Sugar                     – 1.5 cups
  •  Cardamom powder – A generous pinch
  •  Semolina(Suji)       – 1 tea spoon
  •  Water                    – 2 cups

Preparation:
  • To prepare chenna bring the milk to boil and add lemon juice in it and keep stirring until the milk curdles and the whey separates.

  • Strain out the whey using a muslin cloth. You can hang it for few hours to strain off the whey completely.
  • In a wide vessel take the chenna and mix the suji in it and knead it for 10 minutes until it becomes smooth in texture.
  • Form small sized balls and make sure there are no cracks it it, although mine got some cracks. :)

  • In a thick bottom vessel pour water and sugar and put it in medium flame.
  • Keep stirring the mixture till sugar dissolves completely and starts bubbling. Add the cardamom powder to the sugar syrup.
  • Now add the balls slowly into the mixture and simmer by covering with a lid.

  • Cook for around 15 minutes by stirring the balls every 3-4 minutes.
  • Let the roshogollas cool down or freeze them for few hours. Serve with chopped nuts.
And you have the roshogollas ready to serve your sweet tooth.

  4. Hey Sruj, first tell me how did it taste?
    Suji makes it little fluppy and really does not contribute to its color. So its must be because of milk. Did you use sugar or jaggerry?
