When I first read about the Odisha sweet Rasabali, I was immediately interested. Though we know that milk based Bengali sweets are famous, even milk sweets from Odisha are amazing.

If you are a regular reader of my blog, you might be familiar with the Mega Blogging Marathon we do twice every year during April and September. Valli announces the theme six months in advance and we as a group enjoy these months. Both the months are pretty exciting and we get to research a […]
Chenna is the soft paneer used mostly in sweets in West Bengal and Orissa. I made a different version of chenna years back, but after I started with my low carb diet, I have started using a different recipe. In the first recipe I used to use curd to curdle the milk resulting in soft […]
