How to make Kalakand
Preparation Steps
Boil the milk in a pan until it reduces to half its volume.
Add the lemon juice to the boiling milk and stir until it curdles.
Strain the curdled milk using a muslin cloth to separate the chenna (cottage cheese).
In a pan, combine the chenna and sugar, and cook on low heat until it thickens.
Transfer the mixture to a greased plate and flatten it evenly.
Allow it to cool and set before cutting into pieces.
