For Sugar Syrup

Step-by-Step Instructions

Follow each step to make the recipe successfully.

  1. Prepare the dough mix

    Empty one packet of Gulab Jamun instant mix into a wide plate or bowl.

  2. Form the dough

    Gradually add water to the mix and gently to form a soft, smooth dough. Do not over- to prevent hard Gulab Jamuns.

  3. Shape the Gulab Jamuns

    Break off small, equal portions of the dough and roll them between your palms to form smooth, crack-free balls. Ensure there are no cracks to prevent them from breaking during frying.

  4. Heat oil

    Heat oil in a deep pan or kadhai over medium-low heat. To test the oil temperature, drop a tiny piece of dough; it should slowly rise to the surface and turn golden.

  5. Fry the Gulab Jamuns

    Carefully add the shaped Gulab Jamun balls to the hot oil. Fry them on medium-low heat, turning occasionally, until they are evenly golden brown on all sides. This usually takes about per batch.

  6. Prepare sugar syrup

    In a separate pot, combine sugar and water. Bring to a boil, then for until the syrup is slightly sticky. Keep the syrup warm.

  7. Soak in syrup

    Once fried, immediately transfer the hot Gulab Jamuns into the warm sugar syrup. Let them soak for at least , or until they have absorbed the syrup and become soft and plump.
