What is "gulab jamun"?
Gulab jamun is a traditional Indian sweet that is made from khoya (dried milk solids) and flour, which are mixed together to form a dough and then shaped into small balls. The balls are then deep-fried until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside, and then soaked in a sugar syrup flavored with cardamom, rosewater, and saffron. The syrup is absorbed by the pastry, giving Gulab Jamun its characteristic sweet and fragrant taste. Gulab Jamun is often served at festivals, weddings, and other special occasions, and is a beloved dessert throughout India and the surrounding regions.
