Making Rasgullas bring me joy! This is one dessert that is very dear to many’s hearts. And trust me when I say this, these delicious fragrant yellow dumplings are not that difficult to make at home and the result is so rewarding!
Komolabhog – The rasgullas flavoured with the delicious flavours of oranges (komola in Bengali) and saffron! I personally love citrus fruits and flavours, and this version of the dessert combines these two of my favourite things. I wanted to create a recipe that was free from any artificial colours or flavours. Yes, this recipe uses all natural ingredients and brings out the wonderful flavour of the oranges in this dessert.
In this recipe, I have mentioned all my tips for making a soft chenna, that makes soft, melt in the mouth rasgullas. Also the zest and juice of oranges brings out the beautiful aroma of oranges without having to use any artificial flavours. Saffron lends the gorgeous yellow colour to these beauties.
Now without any further ado, let’s see how you can make them yourself!
