Cooking Instructions
- 1
Take all ingredients to make rabri. Pour six cups of milk in a heavy bottom pan. Bring it to boil on low flame.
- 2
Add safron strands and sugar to boiling milk. Keep the flame low to avoid milk to flow out from the pan upon boiling.Mix well and keep on boiling until it turns into a required consistency or half in quantity. Stir in between at every 2 to 3 minutes to avoid sticking at the base. It will turn yellow in colour by adding safron. Allow it to rest at room temperature. Keep 1/4th cup separate from it for pouring upon later on rasmalai or leave as it is to cool down.

Add more lemon if required. - 5
When it begins to curdle completely, turn off the flame and immediately add ice cold water to it. Rinse in ice cold water and then drain it.
Tip: Adding ice cold water will help to keep the paneer cheena soft. Rinsing then draining this water will remove the smell of lemon from it. - 6
Transfer it to thin clean muslin cloth so as to drain water completely.
OR - Rinse it by wraping up in the cloth, then putting under running water to remove the smell of lemon if required. Squeeze it and all excess water will be drained off. Wrap and Tie up the paneer cheena in the cloth. Hang in a hook as shown in picture for at least 45 minutes to 1 hour so as to drain water completely. - 7
Open the wrapped paneer cheena to make sure it should not be sticky and there should not be any water contents.Transfer it to a plate. Start kneading until you get smooth non sticky desired texture of cheena.

Make small round balls of equal size by flattening them gently with your hands. Smoothen gently the cracked edges if any. Cover prepared cheena balls and set them aside.

When water begins to boil rapidly, add prepared round cheena balls in it. Cover immediately and cook for 7 to 8 minutes and they turn to increase in size. Turn off the flame, keep it covered and allow to rest for 20 minutes.

Add them to the prepared warm rabdi. Add 4 to 5 chopped almonds and Pumpkin seeds. Simmer for just 2 to 3 minutes on low flame for the milk to be absorbed by the discs. Do not over cook, they may break.

#Bandhan - Shahi Malpuas are delicious sweet Pancakes, very popular in West Bengal and other Northern regions. There are many versions to this recipe where the ingredients differ from one region to the other. This is my family recipe that I am sharing. In this recipe, I shallow fried them for a healthier option. They are then dipped in sugar syrup and topped with chopped nuts on a bed of rabdi (thickened milk).

I love this color combination, and I also make both the western sweet potato kinton and Japanese-style chestnut kinton.Add to bento or osechi, or give as an attractive present to make someone happy.You can either steam or microwave the sweet potatoes, but the water content will go down a bit so please adjust it with syrup.This will turn out pretty if you mix it smoothly in Step 2.Firm mixtures produce stark color contrast.Using the gardenia seed is optional, and you can use powdered purple sweet potato as well.
