Gulab jamun/Gulab Jamoon with ricotta cheese, yes you read it rite. Am so happy to try my hand with this ricotta cheese gulab jamuns. Actually i can get easily ricotta cheese than gulab jamun readymade mix, yes i have to take a train to go Indian stores and have to travel for half an hour, by the way to get ricotta cheese, i have to walk just for 5 minutes to get a box of this ultimate cheese. Obviously when i crossed this recipe from Savitha's kitchen, i was super excited to give a try. Trust me this jamun came out extremely delicious and the dough gets ready very much easily too.
Am running this week's blogging marathon with Special theme as theme, and this gulab jamuns are ready within less than an hour. I simply love this short cut method, you doesnt need to get readymade gulab jamuns packets from Indian stores from now if you get ricotta cheese easily from your nearby super markets. Since ricotta cheese are cheaper for me, am sure this recipe is definitely a keeper for me to dish out these succulent jamubs often at home.
