Sticking true to our origins, for our penultimate round of the #PantryStaplesChallenge, we decided to make Indian food today!
Indian food is so diverse and it would only be fair if we did one round for each of the states! Nonetheless, we tried to make whatever Indian Dish we love to eat with these simple staple ingredients :)
The sweet lover in me couldn’t get past desserts for my choice in this challenge and I made some spongy Rasgullas!
I never imagined that making Rasgulla was actually THIS simple and used so few ingredients!
From my Kitchen Today, for the last but one challenge, some juicy Rasgullas 🤍🤍🤍

Ingredients:
Milk - 2 cups (500ml)
Lemon Juice - 1 full large lemon
For the sugar syrup:
Water - 2 cups
Sugar - 3/4 cup
Cardamon - 2 pods (optional)
Saffron - few strands (optional)
Method:
In a heavy bottomed pan, bring the milk to a boil. Once it boils, add in the juice of one whole lemon
The milk will begin to curdle and whey will separate from the fat
Strain out the milk solids and discard the whey
In a cheese cloth, collect the milk solids
Wash the paneer (milk solids) with water to remove any lemon flavor from it
Drain the water completely and let it sit for about 15 mins
Empty the panner from the cloth into a mixing bowl and knead the panner until it’s smooth
Roll into even sized balls or rolls and set aside
In a deep saucepan, add sugar and water, and let it simmer until all the sugar dissolves. At this stage, add cardamom if desired
Gently drop the rolled panner into the simmering sugar syrup and let it cook over low heat for about 20 mins
The Rasgulla absorbs the sugar syrup and doubles in size
Add saffron strands to garnish if desired and enjoy some yummy homemade panner Rasgullas
