Re: Look what I made today...
Sadaf, i made gulab jumans and they turned out ok, but even though i fried them for a long time and the were dark brown in colour, somehow the mixture inside wasn't cooked properley. Do they harden up after a while and set? I think skimmed milk powder worked well but in future whats the best pwder to use? Please could you write down the make of powder and where i can buy it from. I live in uk. The taste is really nice though.
Re: Look what I made today...
I did put in a couple of tbsps of water in the dough mixture as it was too hard. Do you think this is why gulab jamuns didnt cook well inside? I did fry them all the way on avery low heat also. Any tips for next time to make them perfect?
Re: Look what I made today...
did you post the recipe? how com ei dont see it?

Bafree go to first page post # 14
Pyarisami, hmm well you cooked them on low heat right? OR try keeping them in sheera for a little longer time. Make sure the sheera doesnt thicken, just reduce the heat once the sugar has dissolved in water.
I use NIDO or any similar brand.
Re: Look what I made today...
Sadaf, i cooked on low heat. Good news though:) after cooled down, the gulab jumans have set in the middle so i think by letting them cool down and giving them time to set helps. Next time i will try using 1 egg per 2 cups powder ( i doubled quantity of ingredients) and see if there is any difference. Thanks hun!
Re: Look what I made today…
I am not sure abt everyone else but I think Nido is the bestest brand to use for this. We have been in the US for 6 years and I bought Nido for the first time just so I could try these out. 
While we were in the middle east thats all we used, or sometimes Klim (sp?).

Re: Look what I made today...
casn you use nido milk powder for rasmali and gulab jamun in pak ?
Re: Look what I made today...
Devoted: My sister uses Nido and prefers it over Everyday or any other powdered milk for ras malai and Gulab jaman so I think it's pretty safe to do so.
Re: Look what I made today…

Re: Look what I made today…
I have made the gulabjamans in Pakistan and Dubai. I always use Nido.
Even the cheap milk powder the military dairy wala, does a fine job (in Pakistan).
It has to be powdered milk whichever brand you use doesnt matter.
OH GTG… Everyday is different from NIDO or anyother powdered milk. Its a tea whitner.
Saadia, Try them :D.. Bringing up this thread made me crave for some gulabjamans, I think I will make them today.
Hinna - I am not buying that for an excuse 
Go go go… fry them in a shallow frying pan, but keep stirring them so that they get colored from all sides equally.
Re: Look what I made today…
whats a difference between powdered milk and the tea whitener???
