Description
To prepare Kesar Rasmalai, soft and spongy cottage cheese dumplings are soaked in a sweetened saffron-infused milk syrup. The cottage cheese dumplings, also known as chenna or paneer, are made by curdling milk and straining the whey. They are then shaped into small discs or balls and cooked in a simmering sugar syrup until they become tender and absorb the sweetness.
The milk syrup for Kesar Rasmalai is prepared by boiling milk, adding sugar, and infusing it with saffron threads.
