Sandesh/Paneer Peda
Sandesh is a Bengali Mithai/sweet. It can be said paneer peda. It is made with cottage cheese. It is very easy and simple to make but very delectable and healthy too. Here below is the whole process how we can make it:
2 liters of full fat milk
1/4 cup of white vinegar
3/4 cup of sugar powder
few pistachios
Method
1. Put 1/4 cup of water in a steel pan. after that add milk and boil it.
2. After boiling, let it cool for 3-4 minutes.
3. Now add white vinegar and soon it will be split.
4. Further filter it through a sieve. Water will drain out and the cheese/paneer will be in the sieve. Be ensure sieve hole should not be too big. Drain all the water from cheese by pressing downwards with any spatula or with your knuckles. (Or place a cloth on a sieve and filter it through cloth and sieve. Tie the cloth and hang it for 20 minutes. Take out all with water by squeezing the cheese in cloth with hands).
6. Make it smooth rubbing with hands.
7. Now add sugar powder/boora and again made it smooth and soft with hands.
8. After that take this into a non stick pan and cook it on low flame, continously stirring with wooden spatula.
9. Cook till it starts gathering. It takes hardly 5 minutes.
10. Now turn this mixture into a tray/thali and bring it on normal temperature by rubbing in order to make it soft or smooth.
11. When it comes on normal temperature, make the sandesh in any shape of your choice. Here I have rolled it just like peda.
12. Garnish it with sliced pistachios.
13. Tampting sandesh are ready to serve.
Tips
1. Sometimes while boiling milk, it starts sticking to its bottom. Smell of burning spoils its taste. Therefore, add 1/4 cup of water in a pan before putting milk. Even while boiling put any spatula in it and stir it quite often.
2. While cooking cheese and sugar mixer, keep the flame low. Stir constantly. Don't cook it too long, otherwise, there will be difficulty in giving it a shape.
Enjoy Healthy Cooking!!!
