Gulab Jamun is one of the most popular Indian sweet world wide. It’s there at each and every marriage, celebration, birthday, and festivals. In brief when you organize any Indian celebration. Gulab Jamun is soft, spongy, and delectably sweet.
The name Gulab Jamun arises from the Urdu/Persian language where Gulab is actually a rose and Jamun is a plum-like fruit indigenous to South Asia. When these donuts are deep-fried they look like small dark plums and because they are soaked in the rose aromatic syrup, therefore, the Gulab Jamun. This lip-smacking Gulab Jamun can’t replace by any other Indian desserts.
