why are you not cooking them at medium heat? why change the heat from low to medium? are you leaving the dough out for long. i used to make gulabjamans long time ago but i had to make sure i fry soon after making the dough or they would break.

put a little khoyaa in the centre of the gulaab jaamun dough…this will prevent breaking. good luck! :slight_smile:

I agree with Lusi…don’t keep changing the frying temperature. Keep it even and steady. I have an electric stove too and I don’t have any issues with frying. Are you using a karhai/wok type to fry in? I use a regular 10 or 12 inch skillet. Also, I use Crisco shortening to fry them in vs oil. It sounds like your dough is ok, they shouldn’t break unless you are moving them around too much?

Gulab jamun is always trial and error. Keep at it, and I’m sure you’ll get them perfect!

No, the dough should not crumble like khoya..sounds like it may too dry, maybe that’s why they were breaking :hmmm:
