Hello friends, welcome back to my channel.
My today's recipe is Rasgulla has a very famous Indian
dessert made from cottage cheese balls, which is submerged in
sugar syrup.
And today I'm going to show you the easiest way
of making this so let's look into the ingredient list
now. To prepare rasgullas
I'll be using only three ingredients today. First ingredient is
cottage cheese or Chenna and here I have around 2
cups of cottage cheese and I have a recipe of
how to prepare cottage cheese at home in the above
link or one in the description box below and for
today's cottage cheese
I have used curd instead of lemon or vinegar and
that is a very important point,
You need to keep in mind while making the cottage
cheese.
Because if you make the cottage cheese out of curd,
you don't need to wash it to remove the flavors
of lemon or vinegar in it.
And when you drain the cottage cheese will have the
perfect consistency which we need in a perfect
Rasgulla.
Next.
We need two and a half cups of sugar along
with 6 cups of water.
These two ingredients are to prepare the sugar syrup.
So let's start preparing
our rasgullas , so for that.
What I will do is I'll add the sugar to
my water.
After adding the sugar we just transferred it to a
stovetop and we let it come to a boil stirring
the sugar inbetween a few times. In the meantime.
we'll start preparing the rasgulls with the cottage cheese
To prepare.
the rasgullas first will transfer this.
cottage cheese into a board
and we'll start kneading it with the bottom of her
palms like this.
You need to knead it for at least three to
four minutes and you'll see that the cottage cheese will
start forming a dough.
So I'm needed my cottage cheese for around three minutes
now and you can see it is forming a dough
shape and over here.
I would also like to share one more tip.
Like when you are preparing the cottage cheese instead of
squeezing the water with your hands hang it somewhere and
and let the cottage cheese release its own water instead
of squeezing with your hands, that way the amount of
moisture that we need in our cottage cheese will be
perfect to prepare.
the rasgullas . So now we'll start forming the
cheese balls for that now we will take a handful amount of
the cottage cheese in our hand and with start forming
the balls out of it.
You can see it has no cracks.
Nice round ball andnow I will continue with the rest of
the cottage cheese.
My cheese balls are ready.
And with the amount I used today.
I have 15 rasgullas. So now we'll
put them in the sugar syrup.
My sugar syrup has also come to a boil and
I'm going to drop in the cheese balls to it
now.
After adding the rasgullas, I'll cover it and cook
it on high flame for 10 minutes.
It's been 10 minutes now and what I'll do is
I'll reduce.
my heat to medium now from high and cook the
rasgullas for another 15 minutes and you can see how
they have increased in size and they are going to
really spongy too. So we'll cover it and cook it
for another 15 minutes
Now.
It's been another 15 minutes now and my rasgullas are
ready.
What I'm going to do is I'm going to switch
off the gas and let it cool down before we
serve.
So it will take approximately six to seven hours to cool
down.
It's been seven hours now and my rasgullas are
ready.
In order to show you I've taken out one and
I will cut it and show you how spongy and
soft
they are from inside.
Also, you can see how they have fluffed up and
just exactly like the
once you find in store.
My mouths watering rasgullas are ready.
They are soft and spongy and a must try in
your kitchen so friends do enjoy it and on that
note
