hi friends welcome to easy and homestyle cooking I am mrs ragini today i'm
going to share another dessert recipe and this dessert is very very amazing and
simple to make and this is nothing but gulab jamun this gulab jamun
I'm not going to make it with the instant gulab jamun mix or neither
with the koya today we're going to make it with sweet potato the same way how we
make the gulab jamun
so first to make this gulab jamun we need the sweet potato here i have the
sweet potato
you need to first boil the sweet potato so what I did is I have boiled the sweet
potato and remove the skin you can boil it either outside or even you know in
the pressure cooker but don't over cook this
it should be slightly soft but not too soft
if it is too soft then you cannot make the gulab jamun so it should be like
this you can see it's hard but it's not too hard if it is too mashy
then you'll have a lot of moisture so what i did is i have taken the potato sweet
potato and I have taken a greater and i grated it till it is nice and soft
it should be very very soft now I'm going to add very little into a bowl and
we need to knead this nicely
we should not have any lumps
so this here you can see I mashed it nicely and now in this we're going to
add the khoya you can add 1 tablespoon of khoya or one and a half tablespoon of
khiya and 1 teaspoon of all-purpose flour
not too much and a pinch of soda
usually if you are using an instant mix then that will puff up so these won't puff
up so we want it to be slightly soft and puffed up
so we are using very little soda pinch and now this also we are going to knead
it perfectly and
then we're going to make a nice rounds here you can see I made a couple of
them into nice rounds just divided into equal portions make it into
rounds whichever sizes or which were shapes you want you can make them into
rounds see that you don't have any cuts if you have any cuts it may
you know break here is the oil it's not too hot
we are going to drop them don't add too many add just 3 to 4 what you can
do is take a wooden spoon and mix the oil like this
this way the jamuns will rotate and they will cook equally can see the
jamuns are also rotating and they're going to color equally if you're going
to put it in high flame and if you cook it inside
it won't cook so it's the same way to your instant mix also any mix you need
to cook it in slow flame and you need to keep rotating it till you get a nice
color all the sides you can see if it is an instant mix this will slightly puff
up but this is sweet potato mix it's not going to puff up
we added very little soda slightly you will get that softness
it will take at least five to six minutes to get an excellent color
here you can see our sweet potato jamuns are getting ready
you need to keep rotating like this then only you'll get an equal color
so this is done you can see nice slight golden in color
if you want to color then it will be too dark so this is a perfect color
if you want you can add these jamuns directly into the sugar syrup or
otherwise if you syrup is too hot then let it rest for some time and then add
the hot hot jamuns in the cold
sugar syrup syrup is not too hot so I'm going to add the fried jamuns
into the sugar syrup
so here is a syrup i added a couple of them i'm going to add this also and we
need to rest this for at least
you know one to two hours then only it will soak and we can taste the jamuns
so i'm going to wait for at least two hours i'm going to show you how it is
after two hours
so friends here is our sweet potato
gulab jamun ready you cannot even say that this is a sweet potato gulab jamun
you can see nice shapes and excellent color
it's not too dark it's not you know too light an excellent perfect gulab jamun
color and it's soaked perfectly
mm-hmm
well it's not too sweet but tasty and i forgot to add the cardamom powder if you
want you can add very little of cardamom powder in the dough in which we mix
the sweet potato
if you want you can add in that and also you can add very little of cardamom
powder in the syrup also
so I forgot to add in both you can add very little of cardamom powder and if you
see the gulab jamun is very very soft
it's literally literally melting in my mouth and I don't even feel that i made
this gulab jamun with sweet potato
if you like it you all know what you need to do you need to make this fresh
in your house once in a while instead of making our regular instant you know
gulab jamun you can make it with sweet potato
I hope you will try it see you in another session with some more recipes but don't
