Kalakand Barfi is a very refreshing sweet and extremely easy to make. Tastes best when eaten the same day.

Ingredients

Method

1. Grease a tray with ghee and keep aside.



2. Crumble paneer lightly. Make sure that the cheese is granular. If it’s too smooth, kalakand will not come out right.



3. Mix paneer, cream, sugar and milk powder in a large nonstick pan and cook over medium heat. You can even add crushed elaichi in it if you want.





4. Keep stirring constantly otherwise it will burn.



5. Once it starts coming together, turn off the heat.



6. Pour the cheese mixture in the tray and level it.



7. Ground pistachio roughly and sprinkle on the top and let it set for a few hours. Once it’s set, cut it in squares or diamond shape.





8. Store it in a air tight container in refrigerator.

Notes

1. To make granular cottage cheese, use a little bit more vinegar than normal while making cheese.
2. Feel free to add any fragrances to it like ground cardamom or kevra water but it really does not need anything.
3. Here is another recipe for kalakand, made from paneer and khoya (solidified milk).
