Instructions to prepare this steamed Sandesh recipe

  • Take a thick bottomed pan and pour milk to it and boil it. Then add vinegar to the milk.
  • As soon as it curdles, strain it from a muslin cloth and shake it properly to drain the excess water.
  • Knead it properly to make it softer and then add sugar, cardamom powder, and dry fruits to enhance the taste.
  • Then take a tray and grease it with ghee in the base of it. Once done, place the mixture in it and set it properly.
  • Keep it aside and give some rest for around 1 hour in a cold room and cover it with aluminium foil.
  • After that, place this tray in steaming for 30 minutes at 180 C, and take it out and give the desired shape you like.
  • Your steamed Sandesh recipe ends here, and it is ready to serve.
