Gulab jamun is an Indian sweet dessert that is traditionally prepared with evaporated desiccated milk or khoya, fried and soaked in sugar syrup. Preparing khoya or mawa could be a tedious task and hence there are several instant-ready mixes easily available in the market which produces soft and juicy gulab jamun. in short, the ready-mix contains all necessary ingredients to produce soft and juicy gulab jamun.








Ingredients

1 cup instant jamoon mix (I have used Aruna Masala jamoon mix)

3 tbsp warm milk

Oil or ghee for deep frying

1 1/2 cup sugar

1 1/2 cup water

Few strands of Kesar/saffron

1/2 tsp cardamom powder




Procedure


  • Take sugar and water in a pan. Add strands of Kesar and let it boil.

  • Once the sugar syrup turns slightly sticky turn off the flame and add cardamom powder.

  • In a mixing bowl take jamoon mix, add warm milk and combine dough, make a smooth and soft dough. Add extra milk if required.

  • Do not knead the dough too much, just mix it lightly.

  • Now grease your hands and divide the dough into small portions and make small balls. Make sure that there are no cracks on the balls.

  • Heat ghee or oil, on low flame, and fry the jamoons on a low flame only, stirring in between.

  • Fry them till they turn golden brown, drain them. Immediately drop them in the hot sugar syrup and cover them.

  • Let the jamoons soak in the syrup at least for 1-2 hours. It will be double in size after 2 hours.

  • Serve warm or cold. You can also serve it with ice-cream.
