Ingredients
1/2
cup
Condensed milk
250
Paneer
cottage cheese
1/4
teaspoon
cardamom powder
Pinch of
Saffron
2
teaspoon
warm milk
1
teaspoon
chopped dry fruits as per your choice
Instructions
Preparation:
Soak the saffron in warm milk
Method:
Mash the Paneer with the palm of a hand or blend in a blender until smooth and creamy.
In a heavy bottom pan, over medium flame take mashed paneer and Condensed Milk.
Mix them well and cook over the medium flame while stirring constantly.
Cook this mixture for 5-10 minutes until mixture will thicken and starts leaving the sides of a pan.
Add cardamom powder and mix them well.
Switch off the flame, remove it from flame.
Now transfer this mixture into a plate or bowl and allow it to cool down.
Shape into Ladoos and garnish with saffron water, saffron and pistachios on top of each laddoo and Malai Ladoos are ready.
Set the ladoos for 10-15 minutes. Serve malai ladoo as required.
Notes
You can also use food colour instead of saffron in the malai mixture too.
Malai ladoo stays good for 2-3 days. I prefer to store these paneer ladoos in the fridge.
I did not add extra sugar, but If you want you can add powdered sugar for sweet ladoos while grinding the paneer mixture.
You can skip saffron and make it plain, the ladoos will be white in colour.
You can also use milk powder in this recipe with condensed milk and paneer to quicken the thickening process.
I have added freshly ground cardamom powder to this recipe. If you don’t like it, feel free to omit it.
Flavour:
I have added cardamom flavour to this ladoo. You can add other flavours, like rose water or kewra water etc.
