TThe mix for such sweets is readily available at shop…….We could either get this mix,
Make small patties with milk and mix(basically milk powder) -->boil it in sugar syrup -->then soak in milk syrup .This is one way!
Another way,
Milk-->soft paneer---->knead the dough make patties-->prepare sugar syrup -->boil the patties in syrup --->prepare milk syrup with badam powder and sugar -->soak patties garnish with cashews, almond, pistachios.
Will go through the second process now!!!!
First let we be clear in what we use.
Fresh paneer:
Whole Milk 1 litre
Lime juice/Vinegar (to squeeze it in the boiling milk)
Muslin cloth/cheese cloth 1
Syrup (to boil the Patties)
Sugar 1 /2cup
Water 4 cups
Cardamom pods ½ tsp
Malai (Milk Syrup)
Whole milk 1/4litre
Sugar 1/2 cup
Grinded cashew/almond paste ¾ cup (or) as an alternative you can use even badam drink mix.
Garnishing
Nuts and saffron
Method:
Fresh paneer:
1) Take a deep pan, boil milk in low-medium flame .let it boil well...slightly reduce the heat and add vinegar or lemon juice (around 3 -4 tsp) and whisk it slightly.
2) Adding citric acid will make the milk to curdle and float on the to separate them out ,take a muslin cloth drain excess milk from this fresh paneer(It might take from 40 min -50 min),knead this to get a dough consistency and now make small round patties (here I lost my patience in making flat and round ones….I started making different shapes tooJ)
Syrup (to boil the Patties)-do it in medium flame
3) Take another Pan; boil the water with sugar and cardamom powder
4) Put patties, let it boil till it becomes big and soft enough.(remember to close the pan with lid when it is boiling)
Malai (Milk Syrup)
5) Boil Milk with sugar, cashew/almond paste, saffron.(or)just boil the milk with the badam feast mix you have….
6) Transfer the drained patties in to the milk syrup bowl, garnish with nuts
Refrigerate and serve Cold!!
