Gulab Jamuns are tasty balls of delight which are fried in medium heat which seals the balls and cooks the milk content of the jamuns. If we use higher cooking temperature, then the jamuns would form a brown color on the surface quickly but won't get cooked thoroughly. If we use a lower temperature then the jamuns would cook much slower and become harder i.e. the entire jamuns would be at the same hardness level. However when cooked at the proper temperature, the jamuns are cooked thoroughly and get brown coloring on the exterior while still maintaining fibrous texture inside. This fibrous texture allows the sugar syrup to seep into the nooks and crannies.
For best results let the jamuns soak in the sugar syrup for atleast 8-12 hours before serving them. A good indication of this soaking is that the jamuns would have doubled in size after complete soaking in the sugar syrup.
Ingredients
Khoya-150gAll Purpose flour/Maida-4 tbsp
Baking powder-1/4 tsp
Water -1/4 cup
For sugar syrup
Sugar-2 cups
Water-2 cups
Lemon juice-1tsp
Cardamom-4
Water-2 cups
Lemon juice-1tsp
Cardamom-4
Step1:
To make Sugar syrup add Sugar and water in a pan and bring to a boil.Once the sugar syrup starts boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let the syrup simmer down for another 10 minutes.
Add lemon juice (The lemon juice prevents the sugar crystallization once the mixture cools down and keeps it in the liquid state.) Add the crushed cardamom pods .
Step 2:
Meanwhile,Powder the khoya in a blender to a fine powdery consistency ,Add All purpose Flour and Baking powder
Step 3:
Add Water little by little and mix the ingredients well till you get a smooth dough and make small ball out of the dough
Step 4:
In a pan,heat the oil for frying.Make sure the oil should be in moderate temperature.If it is too hot,the outer surface gets browned very soon and the inside wont get cooked well.and swirl it with a spoon to ensure even cooking. Fry until the jamuns get a nice brown color
Step 5:
Drain them from the oil and add it to the sugar syrup and let the jamuns soak in the sugar syrup for atleast 6-8 hours.
Enjoy the Tasty Jamuns made from khoya:) Happy Cooking!!!
Note:
The sugar syrup should be warm when you add the jamuns. This facilitates the maximum absorption of sugar syrup into the jamuns.
