Ingredients
  • Upma Rava/ Bombay Rava/ Suji Rava – 1 bowl
  • Ghee – 3 tbsp.
  • Milk – 2 bowls
  • Milk powder – 2 tbsp.
  • Sugar – 1 ½ bowl
Instructions
  1. Usually, Semolina rava has a granule texture which may not suit our recipe so we need to ground to a fine.
  2. As said in tips, ghee enhances the flavor so heat ghee in a pan and roast rava in it.
  3. Transfer rava to another plate and let it cool.
  4. Meanwhile, boil 2 bowls of milk. i.e., rava:milk=1:2 ratio.
  5. Put rava in milk by stirring continuously so that there are no lumps.
  6. Off the flame, add 2 tbsp. ghee and cover with a lid so that dough becomes soft to knead.
  7. After 5-10 minutes transfer to another plate and knead by adding a little milk powder so that we get a soft texture.
  8. Still, if you feel the dough is hard then add little milk (2-3 tablespoons).
  9. Taking a small portion of dough, roll into small and round shape balls. Keep aside.
  10. Meanwhile, prepare sugar syrup by adding a 1:1 ratio of sugar and water.
  11. Bring syrup to boil and off the flame before syrup turns thick.
  12. Add fresh ground cardamom powder or other flavoring agent and off the flame.
  13. In a pan heat oil and put rava gulab jamun and deep fry till they turn a golden brown color.
  14. Once color is changed, transfer these balls into the sugar syrup and soak overnight (based on the thickness of syrup).
  15. As our Sugar syrup thickness is not that thick, it hardly takes 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  16. Our version of Suji Gulab Jamun turns to that softness that you will not end up with one.
