How to make Rabri-

Step 1

Take a deep bottomed pan and add the milk.

Bring it to a boil.

Keep the flame low.

Continue to boil the milk until it is reduced to half a portion.

You must take full cream milk for this super recipe as it is richer.

Step 2

Finely grate the mawa or khoya and add to the milk. It is very important to grate the mawa in a way, no lumps remain or the taste of the rabri will be spoilt.

You must keep the flame low and at the same time stirring continuously.

As milk has a tendency to stick to the bottom and there are chances of its getting burnt.

This not only spoils the taste of this dessert recipe but also makes it look unappetizing with black burnt milk surfacing on the top.

Step 3

Now add the sugar and green cardamom powder and simmer till the sugar is completely dissolved.

Keep the flame low and stirring continuously with a ladle.

When milk is thick enough, switch off the flame and allow it for cooling.

Take saffron in one tablespoon of milk then dissolved it and pour into the rabri.

You can use chopped nuts of your choice at this point.

Add little quantity rose water and stir well.

Step 4

Keep aside to cool and refrigerate it for cooling.

Serve in an attractive glass or silver bowl garnished with the nuts of your choice.

TOTAL TIME: 25min

• PREP TIME: 10 min
• CALORIES: 323

How to make Rice Kher

2.12. Misti Doi Recipe:

Mishti Doi is prepared from boiling the milk till it is reduced to half and is thickened formation.

Later caramelized sugar or jaggery is added to evaporated milk to which curd or yogurt is added as a starter.

After adding the starter, it left for fermentation in a dry warm place which yields thick sweet yogurt or mitha dahi.

Being an Indian, curd or dahi is a compulsory & must milk product in my day to day diet.

Typically our meal ends with curd rice or just by consuming plain thick yogurt.

Basically, it helps to lower the body temperature after consuming heavy spicy food.

Once in a while, I try to make this sweet Dahi or Mishti Doi recipe and serve ourselves as dessert.

it is so addictive and trust me you would love to have it daily.

While the Bengali Mishti Doi recipe is extremely simple, yet I would like to mention some tips and recommendations for preparation.

Firstly, always use thick full cream milk for this preparation otherwise the curd will not thick.

Secondly, I have added brown sugar in this recipe, alternatively, you can use white sugar or jaggery also.

Finally, fermentation should be done in a warm dry place and do not disturb it by mixing.

Alternatively, you can also keep it in a pre-heated oven to hasten the process.

2.13. Sandesh recipe:

Bengalis are known for their love of sweetmeats.

Sandesh is one of West Bengal’s most popular Sweet.

Sandesh is traditionally made from chenna, a residue of curdled milk.

Some believe that the dessert was inspired by the cheese-based dishes at an earlier stage.

  Sandesh sweet recipe prepared with paneer and sugar.

Like any other Bengali sweet, even this sweet is milk-based sweet from curdled milk or chhana and then mixed with sugar before shaping it oval.

Perhaps one of the simpler Bengali sweet recipes which have a similar color and texture but on a dry side.

Sandesh sweet is also available in Bangladesh and known as pranhara but would be softer as compared to the Indian Sweet.

The other variation also includes cream based which is popularly known as malai Sandesh or malai Sandesh recipe.

Remember, always use full cream milk for any type of Bengali milk based sweet recipe.

Otherwise, chhana or paneer would not be thick and you would not be able to shape it and quality will be dropped..

Secondly, you can also use store-bought paneer for this recipe, but ensure it to be on the softer side.

Lastly, you can prepare a flavored Sandesh recipe by adding chocolate, mango pulp, vanilla, and even coffee flavored recipe.

• 250 gm ghee
• 1 1/2 cup Water
• 1/2 teaspoon crushed lightly green cardamom
• 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoon milk.

2.14. Ghevar recipe:

Basically, it is a disc-shaped sweet cake with porous texture and is mainly served by dipping it in sugar syrup or topped with milk rabdi.

This is a classic Indian sweet recipe and is mainly prepared during a festival like- Teej or Raksha Bandhan and during the winter or rainy season of north India.

The local halwai or the ones prepared in the store is made using special disc-shaped equipment on a large scale. and hence the confusion about its feasibility to make with household utensils.

However, we can prepare a good quality of ghevar can in a home with a good density and deep pan.

In other words, the ghevar batter is poured into such pans at a regular interval filled with hot oil.

Note that the quantity of batter has to be approximate of 2 tbsp.

And has to be poured at a height of 8-10 cm. otherwise, you may miss the porous texture to ghevar and also it may stick to the bottom.

During the entire frying process make sure it has to float and not settle at the bottom.

Furthermore some tips –

• Firstly, I would heavily recommend sieving the Maida or plain flour before proceeding with the batter preparation.
• Secondly, make sure to rub the ghee with ice till it reaches a thick cream-like consistency.
• Basically, this step ensures to incorporate air bubbles with the batter and helps to attain the porous texture
• Lastly, the ghevar sweet can be served with myriad options. it can be served plain with basic sugar syrup, or perhaps with mawa, rabri, malai, dry fruits, kevra and also sil1 1/4 cup Gram flour (Besan).
•  

250 gm ghee

• 1 1/2 cup Water
• 1/2 teaspoon crushed lightly green cardamom
• 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoon milk.

2.15. Soan Papdi:

Soan Papdi is an interesting sweet and has a uniquely flaky texture and that melts in your mouth almost like cotton candy.

Gram flour is a key ingredient used in the making of Soan Papdi.

Which involves a very elaborate preparation process.

How to make Soan Papdi-

Step 1

Soan Papdi is a delicious and light dessert recipe, which can be prepared at home easily without putting in many efforts.

To begin with, first, take a large bowl and then sift gram flour and all-purpose flour together.

Step 2

Then take a heavy saucepan and heat it over a moderate flame and once the pan is hot enough, add some ghee.

Then add flour mixture to the pan and roast on low flame till light golden colour.

Keep aside to cool a little, stirring occasionally.

Step 3

Prepare syrup simultaneously. Make syrup out of sugar, water, and milk. Bring syrup to 2 1/2 thread consistency.

Pour the sugar syrup slowly at once into the flour mixture.

Beat well with a large fork, do it till the mixture forms threadlike flakes.

Step 4

Pour into a greased surface or thali and roll to 1inch thickness lightly. Sprinkle the Elaichi and gently press down with palm and use it.
