Rasmalai is one of the most famous (and delicious) Indian sweets, made from milk and sugar. It’s a very rich dish, served chilled.
I love this dish; it’s often served at weddings and other special occasions. It’s similar to rasgulla, which I’ve posted before, but here thick milk is also used.

Rasgulla is one of the famous and delicious Indian sweets made from milk and sugar. Best variety of rasgullas come from West Bengal and they are very light, soft and spongy.

One of the tricks is to make sure you smooth chenna (Indian cottage cheese) by kneading it but don’t over-knead it.
