Gulab jamun is a traditional dessert, popular in countries of South Asia. It is mainly made from milk solids, and traditionally from freshly curdled milk. Home made gulab jamun is usually made with milk powder, a pinch of all purpose flour, baking powder, egg and butter which is kneaded to form a smooth dough, mold into small balls, deep fried and then dropped in warm sugar syrup.
INGREDIENTS
Bread (use white bread only) - 8 slices. sides removedMilk - add accordingly, 6 tbsp or more
Oil for frying
(NOTE: Do not use baling powder or ghee for making dough)
FOR SUGAR SYRUP
Sugar - 1 cup( if using half a cup for less sweet, then add half a cup of water only)Water - 1 cup
Lemon juice - few drops
Cardamom powder - a pinch
PREPARATION
- First we have to prepare the sugar syrup, as the fried jamuns are dipped in sugar syrup immediately after frying.
- So make syrup by boiling sugar and water together in a deep pan and when boiled add lemon juice, cardamom powder, make the flame to very low and again boil for few minutes stirring occasionally. When it reach one string consistency, switch off the flame. Set aside.
- In a bowl, crush all the brush with hand.
- Add 2 tbsp of milk to it first and mash it lightly.
- Add milk little by little accordingly to make a smooth dough.
- Do not add more milk , knead to a smooth dough by mixing well.
- Take a small portion of the prepared dough(a small lemon sized) and make small round balls. It must be smooth without cracks. If cracks, u must knead the dough more.
- Make all balls the same way.
- Heat oil in a pan. The oil must not be too hot, as it will result in a hard jamun. So heat oil in a medium flame, then lower the heat, add the balls, fry for 2 minutes in a low flame, increase the flame to medium heat and then fry it until golden. Make sure that the balls are fried evenly and you must turn the balls continuously while frying for the perfect jamun.
- Now add the fried balls to a paper towel and then to the prepared syrup and finally boil the gulab jamun in the syrup in a very low flame for 2 - 3 minutes( THIS MAKES THE JAMUNS SOFT)
- The perfect simple bread gulab jamun ready.
