I was at an Indian restaurant with a friend recently and we were about to try the gulab jamun for dessert but sadly, i was too full so we planned to have it next time



It's described as "milk based dumplings in a rose flavoured syrup"

So what does it taste like exactly? Any opinions?

it tastes like real good thick pancakes but like a thousand times better. its dipped in honey and cardamon so its not only deliciously sweet, but fragrant as well.

they never give u enough gulab jamun in desi restos. makes me mad.

cuz i love to indulge in them cuz they're only good fresh. leftover gulab jamuns are a no-no.

They are really sugary sweet syrupy tasting. They sort of like crumble in your mouth. Extremily sweet and tasty. There are 2 types the one above and a darker harder version which is even sweeter(to sweet for me).

My personal favourite is rus-mal-lie. Its a sweet milk with milky spongey things. Probably the nicest sweet dish in the world imo.

Gulab Jamon is tasty. I usually eat home-made ones, which taste great.

Rossugola is good too.

Jamun? It's Gulab Jambu!

Gulab Jamun Chum-Chum Rasgulla

it's tastes really good mmmmmm....

Thanks for the replies everyone
So i'm going to guess from your responses that its really sweet

Btw, i plan to have rasgulla some time soon too
Looks good...mmm...

^^good idea don't forget to taste "Chum-Chum" as well

What's "Chum-Chum"?

It's the white version of Gulab Jamun.

Make sure you also try Ras-Malai and Besan Ladoo. Those things are delicious!

Aww gulab jamun so scrumcious I had that while I was in Lanks it looks exactly like the brown version of wot Blob posted. It reminds me of a sponge soaked in a syrupy liquid its like a sugar hit when ya take the first bite.

But what are those?

Ras-malai:



Besan ladoo:

they're good!

they are like old fashioned donuts soaked in a light sweet honey syrup

I always eat them at Indian buffets

Speaking about Gulab Jamuns I made them for me B'day they turned out better than expected. I added me own stuff so it wasn't so sweet I made the syrup more fruity and less sweet.
