Ingredients Serving: 2

  1. 500 ml fresh cow milk
  2. 1.5 teaspoon vinegar + 1.5 teaspoon water
  3. 2 tablespoon caster sugar
  4. 250 ml water
  5. Sugar Syrup- 200 gms (Sugar + 750ml water)
  6. 1 cup water (Room Temperature)

Instructions

  1. Boil the milk and let it cool till it reaches room temperature.
  2. Put the milk in the fridge for three hours until the cream forms. Afterwhich sieve the milk to remove the fat.
  3. Add 250ml water to the sieved milk and bring it to a boil.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix 1.5 teaspoon vinegar and 1.5 teaspoon water. Pour this mixture slowly into the boiling milk.
  5. You can turn off the stove once the water separates from the milk forming curds.
  6. Pour the curds through a muslin cloth and tie the ends with a rubberband. Dip the cloth with the curds in a pan of water around 3 times to remove the vinegar from the curds.
  7. Put the cloth under pressure, under books or a box of rice, for about 10 minutes to form a block.
  8. Remove the block and place it onto a flat surface. Add 2 tablespoons of caster sugar and knead it for around 10 minutes till it smoothens. Form medium sized balls.
  9. In a separate round bottom pan, mix 200gms of sugar with 750ml of water to form the syrup. Bring this to a boil and add the rasgullas. Ensure they have no visible cracks, re-knead them into balls to remove any dents or cracks.
  10. Cook the rasgullas on high heat with the pot uncovered for 5 minutes. Then cover the pot and continue to cook the rasgullas for another 10 minutes.
  11. Uncover the pot and continue cooking the rasgullas for another 5 minutes. At this point the rasgullas will turn in the pot by themselves.
  12. Turn off the heat and immediately add 1/2 glass of water, this is to ensure they do not lose their shape.
