GULAB JAMUN

I normally prepare jamuns at festive times using instant mix.One of my relative used to prepare homemade mix.So tried her recipe here.It really tasted good.

Makes 35 to 40 jamuns.
Ingredients:
For the jamuns:
Nestle cream -1 cup
Milk powder(nido)-2 cups
Baking powder-2 tbsp
Maida-5 tsp
For the sugar syrup:
Water-2 cups
Sugar-1 3/4 cups
cardamom-4 to 5 pods
saffron-7 to 8 strands
oil -to deep fry
Method:
To make the sugar syrup first boil the water with sugar in  a saucepan till it gets a syrupy consistency.Add cardomom and saffron while boiling. Switch off the heat and keep it warm.
While it is boiling start preparing the dough. Knead all the ingredients together. Dont panic if it is too sticky. Dont knead too much.
Start making small smooth balls in hand using oil in our hands. Make balls of equal sizes. Keep the balls apart from each other in a wide plate.
Heat the oil in a pan to high and lower to medium. Slip the balls one by one such that not crowded.
Fry till golden brown on either sides. Make sure that inside of the ball is also cooked.
Place them on paper towels and add them to warm sugar syrup.
Leave 4 to 5 hours to soak and serve.
