Gulab Jamuns - little balls of goodness!


A brief history - Gulab jamun originates from an Arabic dessert, Luqmat Al Qadi (Arabic for "the judge's bite"), that became popular in the Indian Subcontinent during the Mughal era. Rosewater syrup is often used; however saffron syrup and honey are also common. The dessert also became popular in Turkish-speaking areas, spreading to the Ottoman Empire.
