Kacha Gola

By Mita Mondal
Kacha gola is made from freshly prepared chhena formed by adding a mixture of vinegar and water in the same proportion to boiling milk. The chhena is kneaded nicely and mixed with sugar and cooked lightly with condensed milk until it becomes a thick and smooth mixture. Smooth chhena balls are then made and coated with milk powder and finally garnished with saffron strands or nuts.

Notes

I use vinegar and water to make chhena but you can use lemon juice or citric acid powder for the same.
You may skip coating the kacha gola in milk powder if you want.
You can use almond and pistachio pieces to decorate the kacha gola together with saffron strands.
