Ingredients:

For the Gulab Jamun dough:
- 1 cup milk powder
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (maida)
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 tablespoons ghee (clarified butter), melted
- 3-4 tablespoons milk (approximately)
- A pinch of cardamom powder

For the sugar syrup:
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 1 ½ cups water
- 4-5 saffron strands (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon rose water (optional)
- A pinch of cardamom powder

For frying:
- Vegetable oil or ghee for deep frying

Instructions:

1. Prepare the sugar syrup:
   - In a saucepan, combine granulated sugar, water, saffron strands (if using), and cardamom powder.
   - Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
   - Simmer the syrup for about 5-7 minutes until it reaches a slightly sticky consistency.
   - Add rose water (if using) and turn off the heat. Keep the syrup warm while you prepare the Gulab Jamun dough.

2. Make the Gulab Jamun dough:
   - In a mixing bowl, combine milk powder, all-purpose flour, and baking soda.
   - Add the melted ghee and mix it with the dry ingredients to form a crumbly mixture.
   - Gradually add milk, a tablespoon at a time, and knead the mixture into a smooth and soft dough.
   - The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable. If it's too dry, add a little more milk.

3. Shape the Gulab Jamun:
   - Divide the dough into small equal-sized balls, about the size of a marble, and roll them gently between your palms. Ensure there are no cracks on the surface.



4. Heat the oil or ghee:
   - In a deep frying pan or kadhai, heat enough oil or ghee over medium heat.
   - To check if the oil is ready, drop a small piece of dough into the hot oil. If it rises to the surface immediately without browning too quickly, the oil is ready for frying.

5. Fry the Gulab Jamun:
   - Carefully slide the prepared Gulab Jamun balls into the hot oil, avoiding overcrowding the pan.
   - Fry them on low to medium heat, stirring gently, until they turn golden brown and evenly cooked on all sides.
   - Remove the fried Gulab Jamun using a slotted spoon and place it on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.

6. Soak the Gulab Jamun:
   - While the Gulab Jamun is still warm, gently drop them into the warm sugar syrup.
   - Allow them to soak in the syrup for at least 2 hours, preferably longer, to absorb the sweet goodness.

7. Serve and enjoy:
   - Once the Gulab Jamun has soaked well, they are ready to serve.
   - Garnish with chopped nuts like almonds or pistachios if desired.
   - Enjoy the melt-in-your-mouth goodness of homemade Gulab Jamun with family and friends!
