Paan Rasmalai

Rasmalai is a delicious Bengali sweet which is popular all over India. Boiled Paneer( malai) patties soaked into flavorful milk syrup called rasmalai. Making rasmalai is easy however the key step of making soft paneer is little tricky. If paneer is not soft then paneer patties will become hard. Earlier I have shared traditional saffron, cardamom and mango flavored rasmalai. In India, people love to eat paan after lunch or dinner as mouth refresher. This recipe is made with paneer, sugar, paan leaves, kewra and rose essence milk syrup. Adding paan leaves (betel leaves) into this recipe gives a piquant aroma and refreshing taste to the rasmali. Paan flavored rasmalai comes out very tasty. if you like paan, do try this recipe I am sure you will love this unique flavored rasmalai.

Sandesh is a very famous Bengali delicacy dessert. It is a very soft dessert which melts in mouth while eating. On the occasion of Rakha Bandan, sharing this recipe for all sisters who would want to try it. The recipe is very easy to prepare and could be prepared on any occasion. It is prepared using home made paneer and filled with kesar mava and strawberry sauce. For presentation, I have used melted chocolate, whipping cream and some sugar candy and along with watermelon & blueberry. You can decorate it in your own way. Tradionally there is no filling in Sandesh however in this recipe the strawberry sauce and mava filling makes sandesh more rich and yummy.
