Water - 1 cup

A few Saffron Strands (Kesar)
Cardamom powder - 1/2 tsp
Milk maid - 1/2 cup (Optional)

For Garnishing :-
Roasted Almonds
Few Pistachios 

Method :-
1. First of all we prepare Rabri /  Malai : Take 1 ltr milk in a kadhai or deep pan and let it boil in a high-medium flame. Continuously keep stirring to avoid burning at the bottom of the pan. When the milk reduced to half, add the sugar to it and again let it boil. Add few saffron strands and milk maid to it and mix well. Milk maid is optional but if you add it to your malai, it will enhance the taste more or more sweeter n delicious. Lastly add cardamom powder, mix and low the flame.

2. Now, we prepare paneer balls / Rasgulla : Always prefer home made paneer for your sweet dish, which gives a good taste and flavour also. This paneer is always good to take for proper binding. Take the paneer in a flat plate and mash it by your palm to make a soft dough. Add little maida to it and again mash it. Divide the dough into equal balls and roll out in oval shape. 

3. For Sugar Syrup : Take sugar n water in a large pan and make a syrup by stirring continuously. Add 2 tsp of milk to it and find all the impurities of sugar will comes to float on the surface, forming a grey layer. Gently remove the grey layer by using a spatula or you can strain it by a strainer. Let it boil in a high flame. Add the Paneer balls to the syrup and let it boil for 20 minutes in high flame. When the balls start to increase just double in size and float in the syrup, keep the flame medium. After 5-10 minutes, remove the balls from the syrup and keep aside. Cool it at room temperature and press by your finger to remove excess syrup.

4. Final Step : Now, put the rasgulla to the Rabri/Malai and let it boil for more 5 minutes. Switch off the flame. Refrigerate it for 2-3 hrs. Garnish with sliced almonds n pistachios and Serve chilled. Enjoy this delicious dessert with your family n frndz...:) :)
