Steps
- 1
To make Chhana (cottage cheese), heat milk in a pan and bring to boil. Turn off the flame.
- 2
Immediately, add lime juice and mix. You will observe that water starts separating from the fat. Your Chhana (cottage cheese) is done. Let it cool down.
- 3
Drain the water to get the chhana. Pour the chhana on a cotton cloth and squeeze to drain the excess water.
- 4
To make Rosogolla, take the chhana in a mixing bowl and knead to a soft and smooth dough.
- 5
Remember, the kneading is the key here. The more you knead the more smooth the dough will become resulting to perfect Rosogolla.
- 6
Knead the dough for 15-20 minutes and once it does not stick to your hand, the dough is ready.
- 7
Cut balls from the dough and with the help of your palm, give them round shape. Keep aside.
- 8
In a heavy bottom large vessel, mix water and jaggery and bring to boil by stirring and making sure the jaggery gets dissolved properly.
- 9
Once the jaggery is properly dissolved and the syrup is ready, pour the chhana balls one by one into the syrup.
- 10
Cover the lid and cook for around 40 minutes on high flame.
- 11
Do check in every 10 minutes to make sure the syrup is not getting thick or reduced. Add 1/2 cup water to the syrup in every 10 minute.
- 12
You can gradually see that the chhana balls are changing colour and becoming fluffy.
- 13
After 40 minutes, the chhana balls should become completely fluffy and turn soft.
- 14
Turn off the flame and let it come down to the room temperature.
- 15
Your Nolen Gurer Rosogolla is ready to be served now.
