• Add Milk to make a soft dough. This dough will be sticky. Let it sit for few minutes. Milk Powder will absorb the extra Milk. If the dough becomes dry then add some more Milk as the dough should be soft.
• Grease your hands and knead the dough nicely.
• Divide the dough into 20 equal portions and roll them into round balls.
• Meanwhile heat Oil in a frying Pan on medium heat. Place the shaped balls in the frying Pan and fry them on low heat as they have to get cooked till the inside. Remember Gulab Jamuns will expand in double the volume so give them enough space.

• Let them cool for few minutes before putting them in the hot Syrup.
• Once you place the Gulab Jamuns in hot Syrup, make sure it's well coated with the Syrup.
