Method

  1. Knead the fresh chhena with a teaspoon of the sugar until smooth and lump-free, then shape into small smooth balls.
  2. Make a light sugar syrup with most of the sugar and water; gently simmer the chhena balls in it until they swell and firm up, then lift out.
  3. Boil the milk with the remaining sugar, crushed cardamom and saffron, and reduce slightly to a fragrant, thickened milk.
  4. Soak the cooked chhena balls in the warm saffron-cardamom milk for a few hours so they absorb the flavour.
  5. Serve warm or at room temperature, with the soaking milk.
