This is an amazing 4 ingredient recipe that's a lovely one for any occasion or a special day. Actually this splitting of Milk happens every other day in every household.
I have used fresh full fat Cow's Milk here. You can use any of your choice of Milk.
Though this is equal to and even looks like Cottage Cheese or Chenna, Split Milk is completely different because it happens naturally.

Whereas for Cottage Cheese, we induce curdling by different means.
And this Split Milk Kalakand is almost instantaneously done. Very simple and just 3 more ingredients go into making this beautiful Dessert in no time at all.
Though I have used a teaspoon of Ghee or Clarified Butter, it gives a nice aroma and flavour.

And not only is it an amazing one, it's absolutely divine. Very delicious and can be enjoyed with Puris like me. Or even on it's own. My late father used to make this for us and we children use to enjoy it so much. And now my children enjoy it to the fullest. And whenever the Milk is spoilt, my kids jump in joy.
Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Ingredients

20 minutes
5 servings
  1. 2 litresfull fat Cow's Milk
  2. 1/4 tspCardamom powder
  3. 1 tbspPure Homemade Ghee or Clarified Butter
  4. 1/4 cupSugar or to taste
  5. 10-12 strandsSaffron

Cooking Instructions

20 minutes
  1. 1

    Drain the Split Milk really well until it's dry. Add this to the kadai or a pan. On a low to medium high heat, cook until the liquid content is considerably decreased. When it is almost dry, add Sugar, Cardamom powder, Saffron strands and the Ghee. Mix well and roast until a lovely aroma emanates. Adjust Sugar accordingly. You can add less or more.

  2. 2

    And as it smells heavenly and Ghee is seen leaving the sides of the kadai, it's absolutely done. Add any Nuts of your choice to it. I have used some chopped Almonds. Serve warm immediately. Or allow it to set a little and then slice into squares. And relish with your loved ones. Enjoy!

  3. 3

    The lovely light Yellowish hue is due to the Saffron strands used. And since it's already Split Milk that is being used here, it gets done in almost half the time compared to the normal Kalakand that we make using Cottage Cheese and the reduced Milk. That's it. Enjoy!

An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well.
