Does it have to be unsalted butter?

[Manjulaskitchen]

Yes, please unsalted butter

[Affi Khan]

I just have a question..In the starting we should bring the heat high,and then bring it down to low heat? Does it work like that?

[Manjulaskitchen]

it should be low starting, otherwise they will get cook from out side and inside will be hard.

Namaste Aunty!! The all purpose flour that you used is wheat flour or maida flour??

[Manjulaskitchen]

Used maida

hi,can we use baking powder in this recipe?

[Patali Sanu]

Re: Himanshu, I have made these few times using this recipe . What I have found is that if the dough or the balls you make get too dry they start to disintegrate after a little while in the oil. What worked for me was, as soon as I saw signs of breaking, I added a little milk to the dough and kneaded it again, and kept the dough covered with a semi wet cheese/muslin (or any thin handkerchief like) cloth to prevent it from drying out when making the balls.

Hi Anti, we tried gulab jamun as per your specification and fried in medium heat, but initially it was ok and after some time all start breaking in oil. We used Nestle milk powder, all purpose powder and added 1/4 cup of unsalted butter. Not sure what we missed. We too tried next with very low heat but the same result. Can you please let's know what we missed here. Not sure if we added more butter :- Thanks.

Do you have a recipe to make gulab jamun with khoya instead of milk powder?

[Blaaaa222]

I love your videos, you`re such a positive person. My husband is Indian and right I`m making Rasgulla`s according to your recipe for his birthday :) Thank you for all the effort.
