Instructions

1

Make the Syrup

Combine sugar and water in a pot. Add cardamom and bring to a boil. Simmer for 10 minutes. Add rose water and saffron.

2

Prepare the Dough

Mix milk powder, flour, and baking soda. Add melted ghee and enough milk to form a soft, smooth dough.

3

Shape the Jamuns

Divide dough into 12 portions. Roll each into a smooth ball without cracks.

4

Fry to Golden

Heat ghee on low-medium heat. Fry balls slowly until deep golden brown, about 8-10 minutes.

5

Soak & Serve

Transfer hot jamuns directly into warm syrup. Let them soak for at least 2 hours.

Chef's Notes

  • Low heat is crucial for even cooking inside.
  • Jamuns will double in size after soaking.
