• Add a pinch of baking soda or Eno in the flour while making the dough.
• First fry gulab jamuns on low flame until they turn light brown in color. Remove them from the pan and cool on room temperature. Fry them again on high flame on couple of minutes. Using this tip, your gulab jamuns would be softer than those you made before.
• Don't fry all gulab jaman balls at once but 3-4 at one time meanwhile keep them stirring.

History of Gulab Jamun

Gulab jamun was made first time in India; some believe that it was brought by Persians who came to India. Another belief about it suggests that it was introduced by cook of Mughal king Shah Jahan.
The term Gulab Jamun consists of two different words in which 'gulab' refers to rosewater which is part of the recipe. Whereas 'jamun' is a fruit grown in Pakistan. As it is scented with rose-water and looks like jamun fruit, it was named Gulab Jamun.
