KESAR RASMALAI

This one is my mom's most favorite sweet so this recipe is for my mom This is for you amma
1/2 let. -- milk

1tab sp -- curd

2 cup's -- sugar

water

milk --2 cups

3 tab sp's -- condenced milk

saffron few strands

In a heavy bottomed pan heat milk and bring to a boil.

when it starts boiling add curd and stir continuosly untill milk curdles completely

Let it cool and set completely,drain using a muslin cloth

Place a heavy weight on this to drain away all the excess water for about 7 min. (Make sure that there is no water leftin paneer else the paneer balls will break when we put in to the sugar water)

Mash paneer well (you can just run it in ablender or cam mash with hands nut mash well ans smoothly.)

make small ball's of the paneer mixture.

Meanwhile in the pressure cooker add 1 cup of water along with 1 cup of sugar. When the sugar melts in the water add just 10 paneer balls keeping a good distance between each of them and pressure cook for 2 -4whistles. Repeat the process untill all is done adding little sugar and water as required for each batch.
In another pan heat the milk with saffron and bring it to boil then add condenced milk and stir well(if you need more sweet you can add some sugar to the milk)
Remove from heat and Now add the above paneer balls draining them from sugar water slightly.
Chill for few hours and serve chilled
