1

Bring 1/2 liters of milk to a boil in a pot.

2

Once boiling, remove from heat and add 2-3 tablespoons of diluted lime juice slowly while stirring to curdle the milk.

3

Strain the curdled milk through a muslin cloth over a strainer to separate the chhena from the whey.

4

Let the chhena hang for about 2 hours to remove excess water.

5

Knead the chhena for about 7-8 minutes until it becomes smooth and oily to the touch.

6

Prepare sugar syrup by boiling 300 grams of sugar with 1/2 liters of water until dissolved.

7

Add 1 tablespoon of ghee to the kneaded chhena and mix well.

8

Form small balls from the kneaded chhena, ensuring they are smooth and without cracks.

9

Drop the chhena balls into the boiling sugar syrup, leaving space for them to expand.

10

Cover and cook for 20-25 minutes, turning the rasgullas halfway through to ensure even cooking.
