Boil the full cream milk and turn off the gas once it comes to a boil. Let it cool for two minutes.
Gradually add the vinegar-water mixture while kneading the milk solids with your hands until it becomes smooth.
Once smooth, add a tablespoon of flour and mix it well.
Divide the mixture into small portions and prepare smooth balls.
In a pan, cook sugar and water on high flame for 12 minutes.
Turn off the gas and let the syrup sit for 5 minutes.
Add the prepared rasgullas into the syrup and let them soak.
Serve the rasgullas once they are fully soaked and soft.
Ensure the milk is cooled slightly before adding the vinegar to prevent curdling too quickly.
Knead the chhena thoroughly to make it smooth and ensure the rasgullas turn out soft.
Do not overcrowd the pan while boiling the rasgullas; they need space to expand.
Why do my rasgullas dissolve in the syrup?
This usually happens if the chhena is not kneaded properly or if the balls are not smooth. Ensure thorough kneading and smooth shaping.
Can I use lemon juice instead of vinegar?
Yes, lemon juice can be used as an alternative to vinegar for curdling the milk.
How long should I boil the rasgullas?
Boil the rasgullas in the sugar syrup for about 10-12 minutes on high flame.
Can I store rasgullas for later use?
Yes, rasgullas can be stored in the refrigerator in their syrup for up to 3-4 days.
Why are my rasgullas not spongy?
If the chhena is not kneaded well or the sugar syrup is not prepared properly, the rasgullas may not turn out spongy.
