Method

  1. Mix milk powder with a little milk and ghee, kneading gently into a soft, smooth, crack-free dough.
  2. Add maida and a pinch of baking soda; combine lightly without overworking the dough.
  3. Divide and roll into smooth, crack-free balls.
  4. Make the sugar syrup by dissolving sugar in water with cardamom pods; simmer 3-4 minutes until slightly sticky, then keep warm.
  5. Heat oil on medium-low flame and fry the balls in batches, stirring gently and constantly, until evenly golden brown all over.
  6. Drain and drop the hot fried balls directly into the warm sugar syrup.
  7. Let the jamuns soak, covered, for at least 1-2 hours until they double in size and absorb the syrup before serving.
