A very Happy Deepavali to all.

It's a time to rejoice, celebrate, have fun , cook and eat. But we always like to do something hassle free when it comes to making sweets. Just like this rasmalai recipe which is made easy and quick with very basic ingredients.

Ingredients

• 1 cup milk powder
• 1 egg 
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 teaspoon maida (all purpose flour)
• 2 tablespoon melted ghee
• 1/ 2 cup condensed milk 
• 3 cup milk 
• 5 to 6 cardamon pods crushed
• A pinch of saffron 
• Nuts chopped 
• Yellow colour (optional)

In a heavy bottom pan mix condensed milk and milk . Bring this to boil. Lower the flame and let this simmer. In a bowl add milkpowder, maida, baking powder and mix this well. To this add 1 beaten egg plus 1 tablespoon ghee. This will be a sticky dough. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon ghee to this dough and knead well. Make small disc shaped pedas. Roughly around 20 pedas can be made from this. Now gently drop each of these to simmering milk. Cook in low flame for about 10 to 15 minutes until they double up in size. Before switching off the flame add soaked saffron, cardamom powder, nuts and food colour. Serve hot or cold to your family and friends.
