The cottage cheese helps to add body and flavour to the paneer rabri. This crumbled fresh paneer also lends a pleasant mouth feel. The addition of rose essence, though used in small quantities, helps to enrich its flavour further.

Shahi Rabdi.. this is really a very royal.. rabdi.. Simple and made instantly.. the texture of the paneer gives a nice soft malai taste. Served it chilled and topped it over gulab jamun. Now any time i want to make rabdi.. Its very simple now.. no hours of stirring continuously.
