Method:
  • Making of Paneer for Rasgulla:Boil the milk. Pour half cup of water to the milk and allow it to cool for 10 mins. Then add lemon juice or vinegar so that the milk curdles down. Wait for 5 mins.If you are using lemon,Wash the paneer in running water to remove the lemon smell.Then filter it using a muslin cloth or a fine sieve. Let all the water drain off.
  • Note:Don't add lemon to boiling milk.You will not get proper paneer.The paneer should be moist and not very dry
  • On to a plate add the paneer,1 tsp corn flour and mash together for 10 mins & more.
  • It will be in a dough form now.       
  • Make small balls out of it.Remember to make small balls as the balls become double in size when boiled in sugar syrup.          
  • Sugar Syrup:To a heavy bottomed vessel add water & sugar. Keep it in a medium flame.
  • Once sugar melts and water comes to rolling boil, add the balls made from the paneer mixture.
