Method

  1. 01

    Knead and shape the balls

    Knead the chhana with the fine semolina until the mixture is smooth and soft. Divide it into small portions and shape smooth, crack-free balls; they will expand during cooking.

  2. 02

    Make the syrup

    Put the water and sugar in a heavy-bottomed pot. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and bubbles just begin to form. Before adding the balls, let the syrup become hot but not vigorously boiling.

  3. 03

    Cook the balls

    Add the chhana balls to the syrup and cover the pot tightly. Cook over medium heat for 35 minutes without uncovering.

  4. 04

    Rest and cool

    Remove the pot from the heat and leave the balls to rest and cool with the lid on for 20–25 minutes. Then transfer them with the syrup to a large bowl and let them cool completely before serving.
