25 Aug Delectable Rose Gulkand Ladoo Recipe – A Fusion of Flavour and Elegance
Indulge in the enchanting flavours of Rose Gulkand Ladoos, a delightful fusion of traditional Indian sweets with a touch of floral elegance. This exquisite recipe combines the rich creaminess of paneer and condensed milk with the aromatic allure of Rooh Afza syrup and rose water, resulting in a treat that’s both visually stunning and delectably satisfying.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups Homemade Paneer
- ½ cup Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 2 tablespoons Rooh Afza Syrup
- 4 cups Milk Powder
- 3 tablespoons Milk (for kneading)
- 2-3 drops Rose Water
- A pinch of Pink Food Color (optional)
- Ghee (for greasing)
For the Gulkand Filling:
- 3 tablespoons Gulkand (Rose Petal Preserve)
- 1 tablespoon Slivered Almonds
- 1 tablespoon Slivered Pistachios
Instructions:
- Begin by crumbling the paneer into a bowl until it resembles breadcrumbs. Ensure the paneer has a moist and grainy texture rather than being sticky, as this will affect the final consistency.
- Combine the crumbled paneer and sweetened condensed milk in a bowl, and add the enchanting Rooh Afza syrup for that distinctive floral essence.
- Gradually add the milk powder or milk mawa powder to the mixture, resulting in a crumbly texture.
- Introduce 2 tablespoons of milk, rose water, and a touch of pink food color (if desired) into the mixture. Mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
- Transfer the mixture into a food processor. If needed, add an additional tablespoon of milk and pulse until a soft, non-sticky dough forms. The mixture should hold its shape when pressed between your fingers.
- Allow the dough to rest for 15 minutes in a bowl. During this time, the mixture will firm up.
- For a smooth and crack-free texture, knead the cooled dough. In a separate bowl, combine the Gulkand (Rose Petal Preserve) with slivered almonds and pistachios to create a flavorful filling.
- Grease your hands with ghee and shape the dough into round ladoos. Flatten each ladoo, add a spoonful of the Gulkand filling in the center, then fold and mold the dough to create a well-enclosed ladoo.
- Repeat this process for the remaining dough, ensuring that the ladoos are covered to prevent them from drying out.
- These exquisite Rose Gulkand Ladoos can be enjoyed immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to 7 days, maintaining their freshness and flavor.
Delight your taste buds with these captivating Rose Gulkand Ladoos, a harmonious blend of traditional sweetness and floral allure. Whether served at festive occasions or enjoyed as an after-meal treat, these ladoos are a true embodiment of culinary artistry and taste.
