Khoya Gulab Jamun

Ingredients

1.5 cups khoa at room temperature
1 cup all purpose flour
2 pinches baking soda
Oil/ghee to fry
3 cups sugar
2 cups water
1 tsp rose essence
1/2 tsp cardamom powder
2-3 tbsp milk (if required)

Mix the khoa, flour, soda well and add a little bit of milk as required to get a soft dough. Make small balls and keep ready

Heat sugar and water till sticky consistency and add cardamom powder and rose essence.

Heat the oil/ghee on a very low flame and fry the balls till golden brown. Remember not to increase the heat and the balls will not get cooked from inside and will remain hard. Immediately after frying, put the balls in the warm sugar syrup and repeat for rest of the dough. Keep covered for atleast an hour for the jamuns to get well soaked in the syrup.

Serve warm.
