this sounds similar

Sandesh


Prep Time: 0 hours, 10 minutes

Cook Time: 0 hours, 5 minutes

Ingredients:


  • 400 gms fresh paneer (hang to drain whey completely)
  • 10-12 almonds cut into slivers
  • 8-10 of pistachios cut into slivers
  • A few saffron strands
  • 1 tbsp warm milk (to soak saffron)
  • 2 tsps milk powder
  • 1/2 cup finely powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp pistachio essence
  • 1/2 tsp cardamom powder
  • Ghee to lightly grease moulds
  • Moulds of any shape you like
Preparation:


  • Soak almond and pistachio slivers and saffron in warm milk. Keep aside to use as topping. If the nuts do not soak up all the milk by the time you are ready to use them, drain it away before you use the nuts as topping.
  • Mix the paneer and milk powder in a pan and cook on a medium flame stirring continuously for 3-4 minutes.
  • Allow the mixture to cool.
  • Add sugar, essence and cardamom powder and mix until smooth dough is formed.
  • Lightly grease the moulds with ghee.
  • Put a little topping mixture (soaked almonds, pistachios and saffron strands) in each mould.
  • Press some of the prepared paneer mixture on top of the topping in each mould and shape.
  • Chill for a few hours, unmould carefully and serve.
if not I ought to give up now (google is getting tired of me):D
 
LOL!! I know how to make handesh.. but it's slightly different to the recipe you've given.. well maybe it's ALOT different, but what I meant was that they didn't have any images..tell you what, i'll probably have to take some pics and upload em..
Shemai is made with vermicelli and is lovely..
In our house though the must for eid day seems to be Handesh, samosas etc
 
:salamext:

Lol :D

Shemay sounds like vermicelli? (sp?) could be....lol

And JazakAllahu Khayran Bro Doorster!

WassalamuAlaykum

Well, mum soaks ground rice for a few hours or so and then she adds molasses and mixes em up like batter and then she uses an ice cream scoop and fries em.
She's not here at the mo, I'll have to ask her when I see her...
 
If the dish had thin noodly stuff in it, then it is shemai. If it's rice pudding sorta thing, then it's payesh. Shondesh is... I don't know.
 
handesh and shemai , aahh the good old days , lol . dont realy have handesh any more, mum makes it for eid , so i have a few here and there,


Shemai is nice , reminds me of bangladesh. Breakfast in bangladesh is great, you never know what your having, the guys come round early selling their goods,

fresh mangoes and pineapples
 
If you want to pronounce 'handesh' properly, know that it is 'shondesh'.

Breakfast usually tends to be rice, khichuri, bhorta or aloo bhaji. Sometimes hand-made rooti with aloo bhaji.
 
Aloo bhaji? Potato and onions?

Bhorta?

Rooti? Chappati?

So these are the most common foods?
