So cook the rasgullas in batches and keep the depth of the syrup three times the expected size of the rasgulla. Even I crowd the rasgullas sometimes and get flattened shapes but it's okay as long as they are spongy and soft.sangeetahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01091803798460651759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6463192604904445836.post-34247117906578906062013-10-03T18:37:39.021+05:302013-10-03T18:37:39.021+05:30Hello Sangeeta,

The store bought paneer can however be made into another mithai called chhena murki pr chhena paag, just cook the paneer cubes in sugar syrup till the sugar caramalises lightly, cool and have as required.sangeetahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01091803798460651759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6463192604904445836.post-27555667081973270552013-04-26T12:54:01.700+05:302013-04-26T12:54:01.700+05:30Hello Sangeeta,

Also the vinegar has to be added bit by bit so that the milk does not get a shock and the resulting curdled chhena is soft and not in the form of hard coagulated masses . <br /><br />You need not add any ice cubes to stop cooking , and as soon as you see a clear whey you should strain the liquid and wash the resulting chhena in warm or hot water as i have indicated. Small details are important and the end product depends on them.<br /><br />Also you should make a plenty of sugar syrup so that all the rasgullas get free space to expand. try this exact method and let me know if you succeeded.<br /><br />As i said it can be mixed into a mixie jar , i use a chutny jar for the purpose and push the contents with a spoon a few times to allow even blending , no water is used and for smaller quantities i use my hands and it's very quick that way too.sangeetahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01091803798460651759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6463192604904445836.post-10722780220270436812010-11-02T03:49:58.100+05:302010-11-02T03:49:58.100+05:30Hi Sangeeta,

I too am able to make decent ones but they most of time the bigger ones don't hold shape - they are more like rasmalai shape. Smaller ones remain round. Do you have any idea abt that. I used fresh home made paneer. My prcoess is - When the milk curdles, I dump in ice to stop cooking process and further rinse with cold water. Then I run it in food processor until its sticky paste. I have experimented with different consistency stages and this one gives the softest rasgulla. Only problem is no round shape for bigger rasgulla. Any idea why? Will washing in hot water help?<br /><br />Another qs: you have mentioned about using mixie to grind paneer. How do u do it without liquid. I plan to make it when I am India next.( no food processor there)Shy S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11975974707020280657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6463192604904445836.post-58527741727440241392010-06-01T10:32:49.049+05:302010-06-01T10:32:49.049+05:30Thanks Sheema..
