Frying Tips for Gulab Jamun:
1). Ensure the temperature of oil or ghee to be used for frying is neither too high nor too low.
2). Firstly, heat the oil to medium-hot & then reduce the flame to medium-low & leave for a minute & then fry the dough balls.
3). Extremely hot oil or ghee will turn the dough balls to golden brown quickly, however the inner portion will remain uncooked.
4). Traditionally, pista gulab jamun are deep fried in ghee, however you may choose the frying agent as per your preference.
