Sangeetha, Gulab jamun, no words to say. its really like store bought one and everybody liked it. neighbours took recipe from me. really great and thank you too.
Thank You Sangeetha, I will wait for your rasagolla recipe. Tomorrow I'm planning to try gulabjamun of your recipe.I'm trying all my recipes from your blog.keep going by adding new new recipes, so that we can learn from you.
Hello Suchithra, Thanks so much for your lovely words…For sure will post rasgolla recipe very soon. To get spongy result, there are couple of things to be taken care. The selection of milk, art of curdling the milk at right temperature and the kneading part is very important to achieve the spongy rasagulla.
As i'm little busy with personal work, just give me couple of weeks time.Thanks!
Have a great day!

Hi Sangeetha, All of your recipe photo's are tempting and mouth watery. Today I have come here with an request for one recipe-Bengali Rasgolla.I tried it n number of times, but I'm not getting it.Yesterday also I tried, I'm getting harder rasgolla's.As per recipe, they r asking to keep in medium flame for 10mins. when i take after 10mins, its not cooked in centre.if i keep for another 2mins, its soft first and then its becoming harder when cooled. As per manula's kitchen, I tried cooker rasgolla too, but taste is not good.I got recipe for rasgolla from these sites:www,sharmispassions.com/2011/01/rasagolla another url:http://www.indianfoodsite.com/desserts.htm
Rasagolla is my very favorite sweet, that's why keep on trying and not giving up. In case if you get time, please help me in this recipe.It's an humble request from my side.Always I'm getting harder rasgolla's.I will wait for your rasagolla recipe.
