Fresh paneer - 400 gms, Almond cut into long pieces - 10 to 12, Milk powder - 3 spoons, Finely powdered sugar - 1/2 cup, Turmeric powder - 1 pinch, Ghee - 2 spoons, Cardamom - 2 pinch.


Preparation Method:
  1. Drain all the water in the paneer and make it full dry.
  2. Mix the paneer and milk powder in a blender or mixer just lightly.
  3. Heat 1 spoon ghee in a heavy bottom pan, add the paneer-milk powder mixture to the pan and cook on a medium flame by stirring continuosly.
  4. After 10 mins of cooking the mixture, switch off the flame and allow the mixture to cool.
  5. After its cooled add sugar, cardamom powder and turmeric powder and mix nicely.
  6. Fry the almond pieces in ghee and keep aside. 
  7. Make balls of the mixture and gently press in the middle.
  8. Place the fried almonds in the middle as garnishing.
