This recipe features the making of jamuns from khoya.Khoya method and milk powder method are considerably faster than making directly from milk.Khoya is nothing but the solid content of milk left after all the water content has evaporated from milk after heating milk at low temperature for a long time.

  • Add Water little by little and mix the ingredients well till you get a smooth dough.
  • Make small balls out of the dough.
  • In a pan,heat the oil for frying.Make sure the oil should be in moderate temperature.If it is too hot,the outer surface gets browned very soon and the inside wont get cooked well.Fry until the jamuns get a nice brown color
  • Drain them from the oil and add it to the sugar syrup
  • Let the jamuns soak in the sugar syrup for atleast 6-8 hours.
  • Serve it and Enjoyyyyy!!!!
