Castor Sugar – 200 Gm
Cardamom powder – 1 teaspoon
Raisins – 100 Gm


PROCEDURE:
 Once you make the Paneer / Chenna, you need not press it as you normally do. Let it stand on the sieve for 10 mins.
 Roast the raisins and cashew nuts in ghee and keep it aside.
 Then take the Chenna in a big bowl and mash it thoroughly.
 Next add semolina and sugar. Mix the chenna, semolina and sugar well. It will turn very soft and crumbly. Now add the cardamom powder, roasted nuts and raisins. Mix again.
 For getting the caramelized effect on the top, apply a tablespoon of ghee to the baking tin. Sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar on the tin. Hold the tin slightly above gas stove for few mins to melt the sugar. Spread the melted sugar evenly.
 Then transfer the chenna mix over the caramelized sugar.
 Preheat the oven at 185 deg c. Then bake the chenna for 30 mins insert a toothpick to check. It is cooked well if the tooth comes out clean.
 Cool it for 2 to 3 hours and then turn it upside down. Slice and serve. It stays fresh for a week in the refrigerator.
