Preparation Instructions

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Preparation of Dough:
   Take the Cookwell Gulab Jamun Mix in a mixing bowl. Add water or milk gradually while kneading to make a smooth, soft dough. Let it rest for a few minutes.

2. Shaping:
   Divide the dough into equal portions and roll them into small balls or cylindrical shapes. Ensure that there are no cracks on the surface for a smooth finish.

3. Frying:
   Heat oil or ghee in a deep frying pan on medium heat. Deep fry the dough balls until they are golden brown. Make sure to fry them on medium heat to cook them evenly.

4. Sugar Syrup Preparation:
   Prepare sugar syrup by boiling water and sugar in a ratio of 2:1 until it reaches a slightly thick consistency. Optionally, you can add cardamom or rose water for enhanced flavor.

5. Soaking:
   Soak the fried Gulab Jamun in hot sugar syrup for at least 2 hours to allow them to absorb the sweetness and become soft.
