Ingredients

  • 20 small rasgullas
  • 3 cups milk
  • 3 tablespoon condensed milk
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoon nuts chopped
  • 10 small strands saffron
  • ¼ teaspoon cardamom powder

Instructions

  • Take a pan - add condensed milk to it, along with 1 cup milk and whisk it well. Now add remaining milk and let it boil in medium flame for 5 minutes. Keep stirring. Crush saffron strands and add it. The color of milk will change to slightly yellow color, after saffron is added. Let it boil until thick at least for 15 minutes.
  • Then add chopped nuts, cardamom powder give a quick mix and let it boil. Now take your rasgullas. I used store bought rasgullas this time.
  • Take lemon squeezer and squeeze the excess sugar syrup from the rasgullas. Be gentle else the rasgullas will crumble. Now add the rasgullas to the milk and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes in low flame. Switch off.
  • Cool down for few mins, then refrigerate for at least an hour. Serve chilled!

Notes

  • Rasgulla - You can use store bought mini rasgullas or use homemade too. Make sure to use mini rasgullas for best results.
  • Milk – Use full cream milk either farm fresh or packaged milk.
  • Sugar – White granulated sugar is the best to use for rasmalai.
  • Condensed milk - Condensed milk adds richness to rasmalai.
  • Nuts – Cashews, pistachios and almonds are used.
  • Flavoring – Cardamom powder and saffron is used for flavoring the milk.
