Rasgulle ki sabzi recipe might sound like something completely bizarre that is borderline blasphemy. You might be imagining the syrup-soaked ragullas, which is not the case for this recipe. This recipe features the rasgullas before they reach the sweet stage. The recipe for making the rasulla balls from milk remains the same, with the milk splitting and producing chenna that is drained and turned into spongy balls, which are then cooked into a curry. In this sabzi recipe, soft homemade paneer rasgullas are first lightly pan-fried in butter, and then simmered in a velvety cashew-poppy seed and tomato gravy layered with whole and ground spices. A lot of ingredients go into the gravy and also a lot of effort in making the rasgullas, so consider making this recipe for your weekend dinner or lunch and surprise someone today. If time is short, you can buy chenna from the store, not ragullas, as those are sold as a mithai, not the savoury version you need for this sanzi recipe. The gravy for this rasgulle ki sabzi draws inspiration from the typical Mughlai-style North Indian cooking with an onion and tomato base enriched with a khuskhus-cashew paste, ginger-garlic, and a generous finishing of kasuri methi and cream. Serve with hot roti, paratha, kulcha, or naan for a complete meal.
