Notes
- If you have cracks in the dough or balls when you are making, sprinkle more water and make a smooth dough. You can use ghee if its sticky, thought it was not sticky at all for me.
- If you want you can fry the jamuns in 50: 50 oil and ghee or oil and vanaspati. But make sure you drain well in kitchen tissue.
- If oil is too hot, then it gets burnt and won’t gets cooked from inside. So make sure you cook in low or medium flame maximum.
- Keep turning the jamun while frying to ensure even browning. But be gentle.
- Sometimes oil will get low in heat while you fry jamun, so make sure to keep the flame more in between when needed.
- If oil is not hot enough, the jamuns will get cracked and suck more oil.
