Ras Malai

Ras Malai is a very famous Desi Sweet.... chilled milky balls yum yum... this is my moms recipe.... never fail recipe Alhumdulilah ... ras malai is bit technical but if you follow steps inshAllah you will get good soft malai balls... :)

nido milk powder 1 cup

baking powder 1 tsp

cardamon powder 1/2 tsp + 1/2 tsp

egg 1

oil 1 tbsp

milk 4 cups

sugar 6 tbsp

pistachio chopped for garnishing  

Boil milk with sugar and 1/2 tsp of cardamon powder.... after first boil... let it simmer

in mixing bowl, add nido milk powder, with baking powder, egg, oil and 1/2 tsp cardamon powder (that is optional)

mix well with hand and gather at one place

from the dough start making small balls... size is totally up to you

make same size balls with the remaining dough

now add these balls in boiling milk... your flame should be medium low.... and don't mix it with spoon.... hold the sides of pot and turn round... if you touch them with spoon there is a chance of breaking

as soon as you realize they are cooked through... (they will change their color) pick each ball one by one carefully and put it in serving bowl.... pour cooked milk over the balls...

garnish with chopped pistachio... and keep it in fridge for 4 -6 hours... and serve chilled
