    92 grams Butter, unsalted, melted
    120 mL Milk, 3.25%

Make the gulab jamun :
Mix all the other ingredients (except the oil!) together. Roll into 24 balls.
Deep-fry a batch of balls at 160 °C (gentle heat) for 5-6 minutes. Remove them from the oil and put them in the saucepan with the remaining syrup. bring to the boil.
While the first batch is simmering (5-6 minutes), deep-fry the second batch. Then, remove from the saucepan and place in the dish full of fresh syrup.
