Today I have completed one year of my blog, thank you all my followers and friends for your support. To celebrate this I am sharing my very special sweet dish recipe with you all, I hope you will like it
Ingredients –
Whole milk – 1 liter
Lemon – 1 (you can also use vinegar)
Sugar – 1 cup (as per your taste)
Cardamom powder – 2 pinch
Food color – as per your choice
All purpose flour/Maida– 2 tsp.
Method –
Boil whole milk in a pan.
Keep stirring once a while.
When milk is boiled switch off the flame and start adding lemon juice, as the milk starts to ferment stop adding lemon juice.
Place a muslin/cotton cloth in a strainer and put the fermented milk in it, to separate remaining water from chena.
Add 1/2 cup water into the chena and squash.
Add 2 cup of water into the pan, cardamom powder, sugar and cook for 2-3 minutes.
Now put chena in to the blender and blend for 1-2 seconds.
Place the chena on the plate, add maida and mix well for 2 minutes.
Divide the chena into two portion and add 2 drops of food color in one portion and mix well.
You can add another color into second portion if you want.
Take the small portions of chena in your hand and shape them into small balls and cylinder shape.
Roll the chena balls between your palms and keep them on a plate.
Now put all the chena balls in boiling sugar syrup and close the lid, Cook for 15-20 minutes on high heat.
After 15 minutes open the lid and cook for other 5 -10 minutes.
Turn off the stove and let it cool down completely. Open the lid once it is cooled.
Chom-chom has become puffy and doubled in size.
Now take them out in a strainer for 15-20 minutes to drain extra sugar syrup.
