U deserve a big hug from ur friend and wish u happy holidays!!!!
Mullai – could you please tell me what is the quantity of 1 cup(in this recipe) -. I am making a big group of rasmalai. that’s why.
Hi Mullai, I have a question regarding the can rasgullas…Actually i want to make rasamalai with the rasgullas i made..But i don't know how many of them can be used to prepare rasamalai??? Can u plz specify the approx number?? Coz i am stuck here.. thanku bhargavi
Bhargavi,
Normally a small can should have about 15 to 20 rasgullas. To be on the safe side make it 12. Thanks.
Thanku for u r immediate response..
I really appreciate that..
Mullai,
I had a party today and I made your instant rasmalai. It was a great hit. Everyone liked it so much , very easy and simple. All the guests asked your website name and could not believe it can be ,made so easy in minutes. Everyone appreciated it so much. I cannot praise you in words.. Seriously..I have learnt a lot in cooking through your website. Thank you for posting this recipe. Love your website and you/members work.
hi mullai,
Thanks for the recipe rasmalai,i tried in evening my hubby liked it a lot.
Thank u Mullai for ur kind response!!!
Hi Mullai,
U have mentioned simmer half n half can u tell approx how manny minutes coz i am
going to try for this weekend party and i didnt try earlier .It would be great if u could me help with this .
Rose, half and half as such is little thicker when compared to regular milk, so just bring it one boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Have a wonderful time.
Canned rasagulla sucks… We were wondering wat to do with it (coz we got 3 cans of rasagulla). I made rasmalai as u mentioned here… No wonder, all vanished in few sec. Thank you mam… U ROCK!!!
What is half and half milk?And where will i get it?I live in sydney, will I get it here?
Pranoti,
Its nothing but half cream and half milk, its available here in US, but not sure about Sydney. Try using whole milk instead. Here is an useful link relating to this topic

Hey Mullai, this idea is too good.But if you grind some almonds to it i think u get the real good flavour and thickness isnt? I mean the badam milk and rasagullas….try it.Amma doesnt make all these quite often i come and jolluvitufy your receipes!!
Good tip, never thought of it, anyway will try your way next time. Thanks.

Hi Sudha,
This recipe was mainly posted for beginners, namba item will show up soon. Quite a long process and capturing them step by step konjam kashtam, need an extra hand and would give a try when there's help at home. Unga kitta irrunthu thappika mudiyumaa??
Preparing rasmalai with ricotta Cheese is tastier than this.
I agree to the fact that this one is less tastier when compared to the Ricotta, but this cheese is made from the whey collected during other cheese making process and taste sweeter and low in fat. Whereas original Rasmalai is made from Paneer, which is the cheese collected from full cream milk and taste far better than the other two. I've tried and tasted the Instant mix, Instant rasgulla type, Ricotta and the Paneer and my vote is for Rasmalai made with fresh Paneer. Have you ever tasted rasmalai from Mint Street, Chennai??When you get a chance, try that and you will know the difference. One more thing… you don't have to hide, just bcos you gave a negative comment. This site welcomes both positive and negative comments as long as they are addressed with respect and written politely. Thanks for your feedback.
Hey Mullai,
Where did u get saffron, and the recipe is temting!!
I am going to try this recipe this weekend.
cheers,
Rose.
Indian and Spanish markets have them. Regular grocery chains should have them under gourmet and exotic spices.
