  • Refined flour /maida – 1/4 cup

METHOD

MAKING THE DOUGH -Take paneer in a plate and crumble it finely to make the kala jamuns. Add semolina, baking powder to crumbled paneer. Knead everything really well. Add Khoya and maida. Keep kneading until the mixture gets really smooth and soft.Cover and keep till use

FOR THE STUFFING – For stuffing take chironji + finely chopped cashews +  finely chopped almonds + coarsely ground cardamom + sugar + 1 tbsp of khoya-paneer dough + food colour  in a bowl. Mix all well and keep aside .

FOR THE SUGAR SYRUP – Take  sugar + water in a pot . cook till until the sugar dissolves completely and the syrup thickens . The syrup should sticky in consistency like honey. We don’t need any 1 or 2 thread consistency of the syrup. 

MAKING THE JAMUNS

Divide the mixture in small portions . Take one portion , flatten it with your fingers. Stuff it with ¼ tsp stuffing . Close the stuffing from all sides and make a smooth dough ball using both palms. Place them on a plate.

NOTE – There should not be any cracks on it. If there are cracks on jamuns then you’ll need to knead the dough more.

FRYING THE JAMUNS

Heat enough ghee in a deep pan .

Drop these stuffed dough balls in hot ghee and fry on medium flame. The ghee should be medium hot.

Stir and fry for even colour.

Fry till dark brown in colour . { don’t burn it ]

NOTE – The ghee for frying the kala jamuns should be medium hot. if the ghee is too hot then they will burn quickly and if the ghee is less hot then they can crack while frying.

Drain out the fried kala jamuns from ghee and drop them in sugar syrup.

SOAKING THE JAMUNS

Soak the kala jamuns in sugar syrup for 2-3 hours. They will absorb the syrup  and puff up. Kala jamuns are ready to serve .

Serve  piping hot or warm and relish eating.

They  taste  better the next day when the jamuns absorbs the syrup completely.
