Steps

1hr

1

Make fresh paneer and keep it aside for 10-15 minutes.
Do not squeeze it very hard, a spongy texture with a little moisture is good enough.
Heat little ghee in a pan, roast cashews and keep it aside.
2

Now, take paneer in a bowl and mix it with semolina and cardamom.
Start kneading it till you get a very mashed quality, this will take 3-4 minutes.
Add sugar and nuts and again mix it with paneer thoroughly to get a crumbly mixture finally.
3

Now, in the ramekins, spread a little ghee and keep them on low flame to melt it properly.
Add sugar to it and let it caramelise for a minute.
Pour in the paneer mix over the caramelised sugar.
4

Press it with fingers to form an even surface.
Preheat the oven at 185 deg.C and bake the ramekins for 25-30 minutes.
5

Insert a toothpick to check if it is cooked.
Cool it for a while, and take it out from the ramekin.
Serve it warm.
