Chefadora AI has the answer - timers, swaps, step-by-step help.
Heat the semolina (suji) on a flame for about 5 to 6 minutes until it thickens.
Add a spoonful of ghee and mix it well into the semolina.
Combine sugar and water in a pan and heat until the sugar dissolves completely.
Add gulab jal and saffron strands (optional) to the syrup for added flavor.
Mix chopped almonds, pistachios, chironji, milk powder, milk, and saffron together to create the stuffing.
Shape the semolina mixture into small balls and stuff them with the prepared stuffing.
Deep fry the balls until golden brown and soak them in the sugar syrup for a few hours before serving.
Ensure the semolina mixture is thick enough to hold its shape when forming balls.
For a richer flavor, let the gulab jamuns soak in the sugar syrup overnight.
Use fresh saffron strands for a vibrant color and authentic taste.
Can I use a different type of flour instead of semolina?
Semolina is essential for this recipe as it provides the unique texture. Substituting it may alter the final result.
How long should I soak the gulab jamuns in sugar syrup?
Soak them for at least 2-3 hours, but overnight soaking enhances the flavor.
Can I skip the saffron strands?
Yes, saffron is optional, but it adds a rich aroma and color to the dish.
What is chironji, and can I replace it?
Chironji is a type of nut used in Indian desserts. You can replace it with cashews or skip it if unavailable.
Can I make this recipe vegan?
You can substitute milk with almond or soy milk and use vegan ghee alternatives to make it vegan.
