Tips to get perfect gulab jamun
- While frying the Gulab jamuns keep the flame low otherwise you get the brown colour outside inside it will be raw
- Add exact amount of water not too much not less .In previous case you can't roll the balls in later case you get cracks while rolling .
- Jamun balls should be crack free otherwise it will just melt in the sugar syrup you can't find the full balls in the syrup.
- Sugar syrup and water added to the jamun mix will be mentioned in ready made mix box,so note it down and do it accordingly .
- Don't press the balls hard while rolling ,then jamuns will be raw inside and will be heavy too (you can't cut it with spoon easily)
Preparation time:15 min (preparing sugar syrup and kneading the mix)
Cooking Time:30 min
Yields:40 Jamuns
Ingredients :
- 200g gulab jamun mix
- water for kneading the jamuns(around 100 ml)
- Oil for deep frying/Ghee
For sugar syrup:
- 3 cups sugar (i used brown sugar)
- 3 cups water
- 2 cardamon (crushed)
Method:
- Mix gulab jamun mix by adding water little by little .When you get a sticky chapati dough stop adding water .
- Roll them in to balls of equal size by greasing your hand with ghee or oil .
- In a kadai add oil and heat it .
- Carefully add the gulab jamun balls in batches like 4-5
- Keep on turning them to get even browning on all sides.
- When the colour is deep brown .Take it out and filter the oil by using paper towel.
For sugar syrup:
- Add sugar and water to a deep pan .
- Add cardamom powder as well .
- Keep on stirring in for 5-10 minutes .
- No need of getting any string consistency here.
- Add the jamun balls when it is little hot to the sugar syrup .
- It will absorb the syrup and will be fluffy and sweety in 2 hours .
