Rasmalai, made easy!



                                                        
         This dessert is a 'must have' in family get togethers...The easiness to prepare it and the 'melting in mouth' texture and taste,make it stand out among other sweets. Rasmalai is traditionally prepared by using 'paneer' or cottage cheese. This is an easier version of it using milk powder and egg.

         I originally got the recipe from one of my friends and LOL! how much more yummy and more easier! You must thank the time conserving, present day moms for such inventions..

        My son really loves this dessert and my better half always forget about his dieting when i prepare this at home:)

Things you will need:


   1 cup milk powder
   1 medium sized egg
   1/4 tsp baking powder
   1/2 Lr milk

   1/2 tsp vanilla essence
   50g pistachios(thinly sliced)


How to prepare:


  Sift together the milk powder and baking powder and mix well in a bowl.Add egg to it and kneed thoroughly until a smooth dough is formed.Take small portions from this and make small balls about the size of a gooseberry using your palm.Flatten them a little and keep aside.You can make up to 16 pieces with this.
      Now boil milk in a vessel and add sugar to it and dissolve.Add the small dough discs to it and cook in medium flame for about 5 minutes.You can see the discs increasing in size and when it almost doubles in size, stop cooking and allow to cool.Add vanilla essence to this and stir gently.Garnish with sliced pistachios and serve after cooling.
