I’m going to share a very very easy recipe of Kalakand that will take you just less than 15 minutes to prepare compared to the traditional long and lengthy Kalakand recipe.

So without much ado, let me share the Instant Kalakand recipe. I have used Ricotta Cheese in this recipe. And if you don’t have Ricotta available to you, then use soft homemade paneer. There is absolutely no difference in taste.
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 cups ricotta cheese or soft paneer
- 1 cup condensed milk (milkmaid)
- 1 TBSP rose water
- 1 TBSP cardamom powder
- 2 TBSP of crushed cashew, edible rose petals
- Silver bark to decorate (optional)
METHOD:
- Mix the cheese and condensed milk well. Make sure there are no lumps
- Microwave in a deep microwavable dish for 2 minutes. Take it out of the microwave and mix the cardamom powder and rose water. Give it a good mix
- Put the bowl back in the microwave and Microwave again for 3 minutes and mix the batter with a wooden spatula. By this time, the mixture will be looking grainy
- Keep microwaving for 2 minutes till you see the texture like this. You will know its ready when you take a small amount on your palm and it does not stick
- Pour the mixture on a grease flat plate and sprinkle the crushed cashew and rose petal mixture and refrigerate for a couple hours
- Cut into pieces and serve
