By Shreya Sarpal

Soft paneer cubes soaked in a light sugar syrup, chena murki melts gently before leaving behind a delicate sweetness. Each bite feels milky, slightly chewy, and clean, without the heaviness of richer sweets.

Ingredients

1 cup chena (fresh paneer cubes) ½ cup sugar ½ cup water 2-3 green cardamom pods 1 tsp rose water

Step 1

Boil sugar and water until a light syrup forms without reaching one-string consistency.

Step 2

Add paneer cubes and simmer gently for 4-5 minutes so they absorb sweetness.

Step 3

Stir in crushed cardamom and rose water for fragrance.

Step 4

Cook till the syrup lightly coats the cubes without turning sticky or thick.

Step 5

Cool completely before serving so the texture settles soft yet slightly firm.
