Sugar syrup
  1. Place a big pot on a flame; add water, sugar and milk. Keep on stirring the mixture till sugar crystals completely dissolve themselves.

  2. Let it boil because this process purifies the syrup from sugar impurities that come on the surface at the boiling time. When you feel that the purification process has started, slow down the flame and let all impurities join the surface.

  3. After some time, add one cup water from the sides and let it simmer for 10 minutes. Then, remove the thick grey layer with the help of ladle.

  2. Boil the syrup again and put chenna balls in it. Do not put these balls into syrup with hands rather turn the plate into it.

  3. After putting balls, add the solution that you have formed with water and flour to make a layer. Constantly sprinkle the water to make foam.

  4. Rasgulla will take 15 minutes to cook however to confirm it's ripen form; throw one rasgulla ball into cold water. Cooked resgualla will sink down in the water.

  5. Turn off the stove.

  6. Take out rasgulla balls with porous ladle and put on towel papers that would absorb its extra oil.
