Re: gulab jamun
Ophy, I think when you were making the balls , that time you pressed them hard ....
The flour is the usual self raising one that we get from ASDA ...
the pinch of ialachi shouldnt really make them that hard ...
I would soften the crumbly mixture a bit more by adding some more liquid milk , so the balls will come out soft.... or add a bit more oil to the crumbly mix... and when you make balls dont press them too hard in your palms .. just get the ball shape and smooth out the outer bit so its smooth or else oil will make it break out when you fry.
