    Chenna Poda Recipe: A Soft And Spongy Indian Cheesecake

    Try this chenna poda recipe to make the traditional, caramelised dessert from Orissa in your kitchen. Chenna poda is like an Indian cheesecake made from mixing cottage cheese with semolina, milk, ghee, and sugar. Cardamom powder is added for the aroma, while nuts like cashews and raisins are used as garnish. It’s easy to make this decadent dessert, especially with this chenna poda recipe. Start by crumbling the paneer into a bowl and mixing it with the other ingredients. Then you can bake it to achieve that soft, spongy interior and signature, caramelised (and browned) crust. Chenna poda literally translates to burnt cheese in Odia, and the state even celebrates a Chenna Poda day on April 11. The day is celebrated to honour the inventor of chenna poda, Sudarshan Sahu. Sahu, a sweet maker, accidentally created the dessert in 1947 when he left sweetened chhena in a warm oven overnight. Today, chenna poda is considered Odisha’s most iconic dessert, and the state has even demanded a GI (Geographical Identification) tag for it. Now that you know how to make chenna poda and are well-versed with its history, give this dessert a try!

    No-Cook Angoori Rasmalai: Chilled Festive Dessert Recipe

    No-Cook Angoori Rasmalai fits perfectly into moments when you want a festive dessert without spending time near the stove. Built around soft rasgullas and a flavoured milk base, this version keeps the essence intact while skipping the traditional slow reduction. No-Cook Angoori Rasmalai works well during warm weather when chilled sweets feel more inviting than heavy desserts. The idea of transforming rasgullas into a milk-based sweet has roots in Bengali kitchens, where milk desserts hold a strong place in celebrations. This no-cook dessert keeps that spirit alive but adapts it for modern kitchens. The use of condensed milk and milk powder helps recreate the richness usually achieved through simmering. Angoori Rasmalai becomes a reliable option when you need something quick yet satisfying, especially for small gatherings or last-minute plans.

Directions

Description - Step 1

Step 1: Blanch Nuts

  • Start by blanching the almonds and pistachios in hot water for 30–45 seconds. This softens them and makes peeling easier. 

  • Once the skins wrinkle, remove and peel the almonds. Slice both almonds and pistachios finely. Set aside for garnishing later.

Description - Step 2

Step 2: Roast Vermicelli

  • In a large kadhai, heat desi ghee and add the vermicelli. Roast it gently until it turns a light golden-brown colour and emits a nutty aroma. 

  • Be careful to stir continuously so it doesn’t burn. Once roasted, transfer the mixture to a strainer to remove any excess ghee.

Description - Step 3

Step 3: Heat Milk

  • Empty the excess oil from the kadhai, leaving it clean and dry. Pour in the milk and bring it to a gentle boil over medium heat. 

  • Heating milk separately ensures the vermicelli cooks evenly without sticking.

Description - Step 4

Step 4: Add Sugar Syrup

  • Once the milk is warm and slightly bubbling, add the sugar syrup. Stir gently to dissolve it evenly. 

  • This creates a sweet base that will soak into the vermicelli, resulting in a creamy texture.

Description - Step 5

Step 5: Cook Vermicelli in Milk And Infuse Flavours

  • Add the roasted vermicelli to the milk-sugar mixture. Stir carefully to avoid breaking the strands. Let it cook on low heat until the vermicelli softens and absorbs the flavours of the milk and sugar.

  • Add a pinch of saffron and cardamom powder to the simmering mixture. Stir gently to distribute the flavours evenly. The saffron adds a warm colour and aroma, while cardamom gives a classic festive taste.

Description - Step 6

Step 6: Add Nuts and Khoya

  • Stir in the blanched almonds, pistachios, and grated khoya. 

  • The nuts provide crunch, and the khoya adds a creamy, luxurious texture to the dessert. Mix carefully so the vermicelli strands remain intact.

Description - Step 7

Step 7: Dry Roast Slightly And Serve

  • Keep stirring the mixture over low heat for a couple of minutes longer, allowing the milk to thicken slightly and the flavours to concentrate. Do not overcook; the dessert should stay moist and soft.

  • Transfer the Meethi Sevaiyan into serving bowls. You can garnish with extra nuts or a few saffron strands for a festive look. Serve warm for the best aroma and creamy texture.
