Ingredients

• 1 ½ liter full fat milk

• 250 gm palm/coconut sugar

Instructions

• Boil the milk and keep this aside for 5 minutes, so that it cools a little.
• Mix 2 tbsp. of lemon juice/vinegar with ¼ cup water and slowly add to the milk as it starts to coagulate. Add more lemon juice to the milk until the cheese and the water is clearly separated.
• Strain coagulated milk in a muslin cloth. Drain it in a utensil beneath the sieve. This will separate chena or cottage cheese.
• Pour a cup of cold water on the cheese to remove any bitterness residue of lemon.
• Add 4-5 cups of water to palm sugar and let it boil in a pressure cooker.
• Add 2 tbsp milk to the syrup to remove any impurity of palm sugar. Continue this process until a clear base with light orange color is visible. You may also add around ½ cup of milk to the sugar mixture and pressure cook with 1 whistle, this will speed up the purification process.
