Hi Priya,
These look awesome. Gulabjamuns are my favorite sweet and I make them by mixing milk powder and Gf flour, just as you mentioned. But my never come out black. What is the trick?
I have posted the recipe on my blog.
Hey hi, The only trick to make these jamuns dark brown is to fry them on medium-low flame. don’t fry them on high flame.. it takes usually 25 mins to achieve dark brown.
Thank you for the tip, Priya!
Yum what a great recipe, perfect for a party.
