Directions

• Place a pan on flame and add water along with water to it
• Boil the solution till the sugar gets dissolved init
• Off the flame and keep it aside
• Take a large mixing bowl and add milk powder, all purpose flour, baking soda, cardamom powder, cream
• Mix them well to form a soft dough
• Add 2 spoons of milk if needed
• The dough should be soft. Cover it with a plate and keep it aside for about 10 minutes
• Divide the dough into small parts and roll them into round balls
• Place a pan on flame and add oil to it for frying gulab jamun
• Place the glab jamun in the frying pan and fry them till they turn dark brown in color
• As the gulab jamun will expand about double the size, so it is better to give enough space in the pan while frying
• Once the gulab jamun are fried exactly in the oil, remove them and place them in a separate plate
• Let them cool for some time before placing them in hot syrup
• Then place them in hot syrup and let them sit for about 20 minutes prior to serving.

Fry the jamun on low flame because they get harder inside if you cook on high flame. Do not add too much of baking soda as they turn soft and break after adding in sugar solution. If you are bored with gulab jamun, you can also try traditional Rice Kheer  for Diwali as naivedyam to God.
