Gulab Jamun is a traditional Indian dessert made from milk solids (khoya or milk powder) that are kneaded into soft dough, rolled into round balls, deep-fried, and soaked in fragrant sugar syrup flavored with cardamom, saffron, or rose water. Its popularity lies in its soft, melt-in-the-mouth texture paired with a rich sweetness that appeals to almost everyone. Often served at weddings, festivals, and celebrations, Gulab Jamun has become a symbol of joy and indulgence in Indian culture. Its widespread appeal also comes from its versatility—it can be enjoyed warm or cold, plain or garnished with nuts.
