Instructions
- First, lightly roast cashews and almonds in ghee until golden brown for a rich flavor.
- Crack and add 4 eggs to the roasted nuts. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
- Once the egg is partially cooked, add 6 tablespoons of sugar and mix again until completely dissolved.
- Stir in 0.5 teaspoon of cardamom powder and continue to fry until fully cooked. Set aside this paneer mixture to cool completely.
- In a separate bowl, combine 250 grams of maida, 2 egg yolks, 0.5 cup of milk, and a pinch of salt to create a smooth, pourable dough.
- Cook thin crepes (dosa-like) from the dough on a lightly greased griddle until golden.
- Place a generous portion of the prepared paneer mixture in the center of each hot crepe.
- Carefully fold the crepe from all four sides to form a neat box shape, firmly sealing the edges.
- Dip the paneer-filled crepe box in lightly beaten egg white for a crispy coating.
- Roast the dipped crepe on a griddle until it turns golden brown and beautifully crispy.
- To make the sugar syrup, heat 1 cup of water in a pan until it comes to a boil.
- Add 1 cup of sugar to the boiling water and stir continuously until it's completely dissolved.
- Remove from heat and add 0.5 teaspoon of cardamom powder and 0.5 teaspoon of rose water to the sugar syrup. Allow it to cool completely.
- Soak the prepared paneer petti in the cooled sugar syrup for 15-20 minutes, ensuring it's fully submerged to absorb the sweetness.
- Garnish with chopped nuts and serve this delightful Paneer Petti after soaking.
