kugan ma'am,
This is my first post in this thread. Sorry, I don't visit this thread often. I have been reading occasionally about your delicious dishes. Today, my wife wanted to try a new dish and immediately recommended this thread and she picked your 'Surakkai Subzi'. To be honest, surakkai never tasted this good before. So delicious! My wife and me saying a huge thanks to you and to your hard work. Great job!

Also heard that you were not feeling well for some time and very happy that you are back. Please take care.

Kugan ...dev...selvi...neengalum try pannalaam...let me know how it turns out..........


En friendoda Easy O Easy Rasmalai..........

I usually double the quantity of everything and make in a bigger rectangular dish. It usually takes about 45 - 55 minutes in the oven but you should keep checking after the first 30 minutes



In a bowl mix together 2 cups part skim ricotta cheese ( 1 lb container ) with 1 cup of sugar until very smooth.

Pour into a 8 inch square glass baking dish and place in a preheated 350 degrees oven for 20 minutes. Continue to bake another 10-20 mins, checking the mixture every 5 minutes until it separates from the sides of the pan. Remove and cool.

Bring to a boil in a saucepan 2 cups half and half with a pinch of saffron added to it. Let it cool.

Cut the baked ricotta into serving size squares and place in a serving dish. Pour the half and half over it, sprinkle slivered unsalted almonds or pistachios on top and allow to soak and chill in the refrigerator. Enjoy !



I usually pour a can of low fat evaporated milk on the baked ricotta squares instead of half and half. No need to heat the evaporated milk, so that makes sit easier.

You do not need to add sugar to the milk as when you pour it on the baked ricotta and chill in the fridge it will absorb the sugar from the ricotta and become sweet.

I soak a pinch of saffron in a couple of tsps of warm water, let it stand for half and hour and pour it on the rasmalai when I add the slivered pistachios. Very easy and delicious ......aahaaaa aahaaaa aaahaaa nu sollikitey irupaanga onga family / friends

u better make plenty becoz....meethi irukavey irukaathu for sure

Another tip....for one container of ricotta cheese you can use half container of sugar ( use the same container for measurement)....try Tri Stelle ricotta cheese.... works very well)...hope this helps
