How to Make Kala Jamun and Gulab Jamun / Delicious kala jamun and Gulab jamun
First, we will prepare the chasni/sugar syrup; for that, we will take a big vessel
Add 1 cup sugar and 1 cup water
Put it on the burner and add cardamom
Once boiled and become single thread consistency, then take it out from the flame
Now we will prepare the chenna from the milk; for that, we have taken 500 ml fresh milk, and allow it to boil( if you don’t want to make chenna, then you can make it with the paneer )
Then slowly add the lemon juice in 3-4 stages
Now you can see the chenna starts separating from the milk
Take a strainer, strain the chenna, and keep this way for 6-7 hours to strain all the liquid
Now put the chenna on a big plate and mash those for 15 minutes with the help of your palm (mount portion)
After mashing the chenna, now we will add the Soft Khoya, and again mash them for 15 minutes
Now add all-purpose flour
Knead smooth dough
Now take a little portion from the dough and with the help of your both hand palms make a small lemon size ball. ( make sure there should not any cracks in the balls)
Same way make all the balls from the dough
Heat ghee or oil in a kadai or pan
Carefully drop all the balls one by one and fry them in high flame, so that the outer side of the balls becomes hard and the chances of becoming crack will be less
Now the kala jamuns are floating and well frying; now you can reduce the heat.
Fry more, till the color becomes black.
Once they become black in color, then take them out from the oil, with the help of a strainer, and put them in the sugar syrup.
The same way makes the gulab jamun, but need not fry for a long time, just changes color to light brown, then take them out from the oil and put in the sugar syrup.
