even when i try to make rasmalai using cottage cheese, it never turns out to be good..
but this method usually works for me..
mix the I cup powdered milk, 1 teaspoon oil,1/4 teaspoon baking powder and 1 leveled tablespoon of maida.Once the dough is done mold it into small balls and then flatten the balls slightly.
Boil the milk with sugar and cardamom powder.as soon as the milk starts boiling add the balls in it.The balls will tend to swell up , lower the heat to simmer.cook the milk with the balls for another 8- 10 minutes.remove it from the heat and let it cool.Put it in the fridge..

possibly you were unsuccesful because they're actually two seperate dishes

Ras malai.. I always use laziza packets and it turns out just fine.. in fact perfect!! I had tried the ricotta cheese ones but it was one unsuccessful attempt!

Gulab jaman.. I used Gits in the past, turned out great but in Pakistan Gits wasn't available since it's an Indian brand, I tried this recipe and they were really good.


Ingredients
1 cup nido powdered milk
1tbsp fresh cream
1/2tsp baking powder
1 egg

Method
-Knead them all together
-Make 10-12 small balls and deep fry them


Sheera
-In another pot, add 2 cups water, 1 1/2 cup sugar, 2-3 cardamoms
-Bring it to boil until the consistency becomes thick n dark yellow


Add the fried balls in sheera, cover it with lid for 20-30 mins until the balls have absorbed the sheera!

I have made gulabjaman quite a few times with the rafan gulabjaman mix, and they always came out amazing.







May Allah bring peace in Pakistan. Ameen

I dont know how to make em. I do know you can get the gulab jamin mix from desi stores. You can also get frozen ras malai that you have to let defrost. The best gulab jamins are home made ones. YUMMYY!

Hmmm these recipes for gulab jamun are totally different from what i am used to , my parents used to own a swt centre n i kinda learnt frm there, i think they used 2cupmilk powder to a cup of semolina powder n butter, i wonderrrrr
as for rasmalai well to make fresh at home we used to put milk like 4pints in a pan n boil n then add sme vinegar, the milk will begin to seperate within seconds, as soon as its done take it off the heat n put the paneer in a sieve with a heavy weight on top to help drain the water n leave overnite. next day knead it with an egg n make lil balls n have the milk rady n jus put them in
