Gulab Jamuns, i have a serious addiction to these beauties. I can never stop having them. Even yesterday i had three of those beauties which i bought from my favourite bakery. I love making them too. They can be made so many different ways, in my blog i have shared few variations of them and this is another one. Last diwali i shared sweet potato jamun, so i decided to try a version of jamun for this diwali as well. So i decided to make paneer jamun and aloo jamun..Will be sharing the potato jamun tomorrow..

Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
Oil or Ghee for Deep frying
Take crumbled paneer, mash them really well.
4)The syrup has to be warm, the jamuns should be hot..So when you put hot jamun in syrup, it absorbs the syrup well.
Start by making sugar syrup..take sugar in a sauce pan |
add in water |
bring it to a good boil and cook for 5 mins |
the syrup should reach sticky stage and not 1 string consistency |
add few drops of rose essence |
add a pinch of saffron..set aside and keep the syrup warm and not piping hot |
now take ingredients for jamun |
take crumbled paneer in a bowl |
mash them well |
now it is smooth |
add in flour |
add a pinch of baking soda |
knead well |
it has to be smooth |
take small portion |
roll it into a smooth ball |
add done |
now drop it in hot oil |
fry till golden |
now add it to the warm syrup..Hot jamuns added to warm syrup will absorb the syrup much better |
soak for an hour or so |
Serve |
Wow !! tasty guab jamun arthi ..

1 cup is how many grams
Re these measurements fr paneer from 2 litres of milk.?
I didn't add soda and mine turned extremely hard
@Anonymousadding soda will make it soft and dont over fry them
@Anonymousyou can make paneer and measure it to 1 cup and use
@anonymousmy 1 cup measures 240 ml
akka i tried today..when i drop it in oil..aftr few mins it splits lyk anothr ball,it exploded actualyy..what s d reasn akka?
@umamahiI think u have added too much baking soda. or the paneer which u used is not drained well
oh ok akka n i used store bot paneer,does it affects the taste and texture?..and itwas not at all absorbd the syrup,when i pressed it was nt soft:( it was lyk very hard ball,bt i doubled this recipe and added only 6tbsp of maida for 2cups of paneer..n also i felt d sourness in t..why s tat??thanks:)
@umamahihomemade paneer has to be used, since it is much more softer.
Hi, I dint use soda or maida just the paneer alone. I fried it in low to medium heat only but the jamun still is floating in the sugar syrup only and it is not soaking beven after 3 hours.is it a must to use maida and soda???
