Gulab Jamun

Soft, golden milk dumplings are fried until lightly caramelized, then soaked in a warm cardamom-scented syrup until plump and fragrant. Serve them warm or at room temperature for a classic Indian dessert with a tender, almost melting center.

Cómo preparar

1
Combine the sugar, water, and crushed cardamom in a wide saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves, then simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the rose water; keep the syrup warm and uncovered.
2
Sift the milk powder, flour, and baking powder into a bowl. Add the milk and mix with your fingertips just until a soft, slightly tacky dough forms. Add extra milk a teaspoon at a time only if dry; do not knead vigorously.
3
Rest the dough for 5 minutes. Lightly grease your hands, divide the dough into 18 equal pieces, and roll each into a smooth ball with no cracks; cover the shaped balls while heating the ghee.
4
Heat the ghee in a deep, heavy saucepan to about 150°C, or until a small piece of dough rises slowly with gentle bubbling. Fry the balls in batches, turning frequently, for 6 to 8 minutes until evenly deep golden brown.

5
Lift each batch with a slotted spoon and drain briefly. Transfer the hot dumplings to the warm syrup, making sure they are mostly submerged, and leave them to soak for at least 2 hours.
6
Serve the gulab jamun warm or at room temperature, spooning over plenty of cardamom-rose syrup. If desired, garnish with chopped pistachios just before serving.

Por qué funciona esta receta

Milk powder provides concentrated dairy flavor and a tender crumb, while a small amount of flour gives the dough enough structure to hold its shape. Gentle frying creates a thin caramelized shell, and the warm syrup gradually hydrates the centers without making them collapse.

Conservación y recalentado

Cómo conservarla

Store the gulab jamun covered in their syrup in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Let them stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before reheating or serving.

Cómo recalentarla

Reheat gently in a saucepan over low heat for 5 to 7 minutes, or microwave a portion covered loosely for 20 to 30 seconds. Do not let the syrup boil vigorously.
