    Dear Manjula.
    In your video , you mention that you used 4 oz of paneer. But when I shredded 4 oz of paneer, it’s one cup filled to the top. Or a little more. Nowhere near 1.5 cups.

    Hi,
    Thanks for this recipe. i have prepared this dessert twice and the furst time it tasted just great and everyone loved it.
    But when I made it the second time for some reason the milk remained thin and did not thicken as expected after adding corn starch. I used 2 percent fat milk. The only diff in prep I did this time was adding paneer first and then corn starch.
    Can pls help me know what cud have been the reason and if this can be fixed.

    good one. i enjoyed watching it thoroughly. i love such dishes for dessert. i am going to make it soon. looked interesting, different and most imp easy.
    my daughter is 3. 5 yrs old and she can watch your recipes for atleast 2 hours. one after the other. she enjoys watching, questions me regarding spices, why you used one particular spice, mom lets make it today, i know how to make it now etc etc. she is a good eater, eats anything and everything so she likes trying out your dishes. i would have been lazy to try elaborate recipes but just because she wants to try out what u cooked i have to make it and she makes sure she is with me all throughout the cooking. she wants to be a chef after watching u. thank u.
