Cham-Cham is a very delicious Bengali sweet made of paneer. Learn how to prepare Cham-Cham by following this easy recipe.



Ingredients:

• 450 gms Paneer

• 4 cups Water

• 2 cups Sugar

• 2-3 tbsp Rose Water

• A few strands of Saffron

• 200gms Fresh Thickened/ Double Cream


How to make Cham-Cham:

• Put the paneer in a bowl and knead it. Knead till all the lumps are removed and the paneer/cheese is absolutely smooth.

• Prepare sugar syrup by adding sugar and water in a pressure cooker and bring the mixture to a boil (without covering the pressure cooker).

• While the sugar syrup boils, divide the paneer dough into small oblong shaped balls and roll between your palms till smooth.

• Gently dip the balls to the sugar syrup and cover the pressure cooker. After the first whistle, wait for 8-10 minutes and then turn off the flame.

• Release the steam from the pressure cooker and allow the Cham-Chams to cool completely before touching them.

• When cool, pour the rose water and saffron strands on the Cham-Chams and chill for a few hours.

• When chilled, remove the Cham-Chams from the syrup and arrange in a platter.

• Whisk the fresh cream till thick and fluffy. Fill into an icing bag and pipe a swirl out (with a thick nozzle) onto each Cham-Cham.

• Garnish with slivers of your favorite dried fruit and serve.
