Though the Gulab-Jamun were made during Diwali Festival...we r still melting the sweet sugar in our mouths.
Long back in my childhood my mother used to make gulab-jamun at home wit the GITS ready-to-make packet.
The instructions mention to prepare were very easy and also the post-product came up really delicious..
The link to GITS site is as follows:-

When i wanted to prepare i could not get the GITS packet, so i decided to make a little change and choose MTR product..
Almost same instruction and the gulab jamun came up...simple prefect as u noticed in the last blog..
So make more gulab jamun wit either GITS or MTR..all tastes same..simply sweet and soft and almost like heaven.

Instructions to make GULAB -JAMUN from the MTR Ready-made packet..
> Add 1/4 measure of water to 1 measure of mix and knead the mix gently into a dough. Set aside for 5 min.
> Make small balls and fry in hot oil ghee over a low flame until golden brown.
> Soak the gulab jamuns in hot sugar syrup until they completely absorb the syrup and serve.
> Sugar syrup: Add equal measures of sugar and water and boil for 15 min (this pack needs 800g of sugar).
> Add rose essence or cardamom powder if desired.
..NOTE:-
What if by mistake excess water is poured in the dough..??!!!
- Well need not worry just add some "REFINED-FLOUR" and mix it well till it is fine..

You are certainly taking pleasure in cooking and more so exploring to do it rapidly… without compromising on the quality :) I suppose it is the demand of time in such hectic living.
ReplyDeleteRegarding the Gulab Jamun you prepared…they appear delighting and lip-smacking.
The Gulub Jamum still remain too good a sweet to overlook despite the fact that dry-fruits and chocolates are in vogue.
I too had my appetite for the jamun fulfilled this time.
Thanks for sharing the GITS info… I will certainly explore it.
