Gulab jamons recipe



Recipe for gulab jamons in our easy curry recipes collection.

Recipe ingredients

  • For syrup:
    • 8 ounces granulated sugar
    • 6 green cardamoms
    • 4 cups water
  • For jamons:
    • 6 tablespoons full fat milk powder
    • 2 tablespoons self-raising flour
    • 1 tablespoon melted butter
    • A little cold milk to bind
    • Oil for deep frying

How to make gulab jamons

  • Put the sugar, cardamoms, and water into a pot and bring to the boil. Turn down the heat and simmer the syrup for about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile sift the milk powder and flour into a bowl. Add the melted butter and rub into mixture with fingertips until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
  • Add the milk a little at a time, drawing in the mixture to form a soft dough.
  • Put the oil on to heat and divide the dough into 16 parts. Roll each one out in the palms of your hands into a little ball.
  • The syrup should be ready by now. Take it off the heat so that it may cool slightly before having the jamons out into it.
  • Test the oil by putting in one ball of dough. The oil must only just be hot enough to make the dough rise to the surface after a few seconds and to fry it very gently. Adjust as necessary.
  • When the oil is at the right heat, put in as many balls of dough as your pan or karahi will easily take.
  • Move the pan about carefully to keep the jamons moving until they rise to the surface of the oil.
  • When they are at the surface keep moving them about with a slotted spoon to ensure that they cook evenly.
  • The jamons will almost double in size as they are cooking and will turn a deep, golden brown colour. This should take about 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Drain on kitchen paper, allowing to cool for five minutes and drop them into the syrup.
  • The jamons will be very soft and easily broken until they have cooled, when the texture will become firmer.
  • Serve with a few tablespoons of the syrup for each person.
