Gulab Jamun Recipe with Cold Pressed Groundnut Oil

Among the myriad sweets that grace the Diwali platter, one stands out for its irresistibly sweet and aromatic allure – “The Gulab Jamun”. This delightful dessert, with its soft, syrup-soaked goodness, has become an iconic part of the Diwali celebrations. As the lamps glow and families gather, Gulab Jamun's sweet embrace is a must, adding a touch of warmth and sweetness to the festivities.

This year, elevate your Gulab Jamun experience with Indiyeah's cold pressed groundnut oil, a healthier alternative to refined oils. Our high-quality, unrefined oil retains the natural goodness of groundnuts, adding a subtle nutty flavor to your Gulab Jamun while ensuring a healthier indulgence.

Usually, Gulab Jamun is deep-fried in refined oils, which can increase your intake of unhealthy fats and cholesterol. By switching to Indiyeah's cold pressed groundnut oil, you can enjoy the same delicious flavor and texture while making a healthier choice for yourself and your loved ones.

Cold pressed groundnut oil is a rich source of essential fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals. It has a high smoke point, making it ideal for deep-frying without the risk of burning or producing harmful compounds. Additionally, its nutty flavor complements the sweetness of the Gulab Jamun perfectly.

 

Gulab Jamun Recipe with Indiyeah Cold Pressed Groundnut Oil

Ingredients Required:

1. For the Gulab Jamun:

  • 1 cup milk powder
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (maida)
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • A pinch of salt
  • 2 tablespoons ghee (clarified butter)
  • 2-3 tablespoons of milk (as needed)
  • Indiyeah cold pressed groundnut oil for deep frying
2. For the Sugar Syrup:
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • A few saffron strands (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cardamom powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon rose water (optional)

Cooking Instructions for Lip-smacking Gulab Jamun:

1. For the Sugar Syrup:
  • In a saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely.
  • Add saffron strands (if using) and cardamom powder to the syrup. Simmer the syrup for about 5-7 minutes until it slightly thickens. You're looking for a one-string consistency, which means when you touch the syrup between your thumb and forefinger, it should form a single thread.
  • Once you reach the desired consistency, remove the syrup from the heat and stir in the rose water. Set it aside to cool.
2. For the Gulab Jamun:
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the milk powder, all-purpose flour, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Mix well.
  • Add ghee to the dry ingredients and mix it in. The mixture should resemble breadcrumbs.
  • Gradually add milk while kneading the mixture into a soft and smooth dough. You may not need all the milk, so add it a little at a time. The dough should not be too sticky.
  • Divide the dough into small, equal-sized portions and roll them into smooth, crack-free balls. Make sure they are smooth and without any cracks, as this will help them absorb the sugar syrup.
  • Heat Indiyeah Cold Pressed Groundnut Oil in a deep frying pan over medium-low heat. Make sure the oil is not too hot; you want to fry the Gulab Jamun on low to medium heat.
  • Gently slide a few Gulab Jamun balls into the hot oil and fry them until they turn golden brown. Make sure to keep the heat low to ensure they cook evenly on the inside.
  • Remove the fried Gulab Jamun from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain the excess oil on a paper towel.
  • Immerse the hot Gulab Jamun into the warm sugar syrup. Let them soak for at least an hour, allowing the syrup to penetrate the Jamun.
  • Your Gulab Jamun is ready to be served! You can garnish them with chopped nuts or silver leaf if desired.
