Please use same measuring cup to measure Gulab Jamun Mix, sugar and water.

Makes: 11

You will need

1 cup (200 g) MTR Gulab Jamun Mix
1/4 cup (3 tablespoons) milk
2 teaspoon oil / ghee
225 ml oil for frying
1 cup (200 g) sugar (or 1 cup + 2 tablespoons)
1 cup (200 ml) water
1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder

Method

In a wide bowl, add 1/4 cup milk gradually to 1 cup MTR Gulab Jamun mix and knead gently into smooth dough. Keep aside for 5 minutes.

Apply oil or ghee on both palms, then shape the dough into small balls.

Heat oil in a frying pan. Do not fry on high heat. Reduce the heat to low and deep fry on both the sides until golden brown in batches (5 jamuns at a time). Drain out from the oil and keep aside.

In a deep bowl, boil sugar and water for 7 minutes (until slightly thickens). Switch off the heat. Sprinkle cardamom powder.

Soak fried gulab jamuns in hot sugar syrup for 20 minutes until they completely absorb the syrup. Serve warm or cold.
